About the author

After three years, it is finally time to lift the lid on the secret identity of the Zac Power series’ best-selling author, H.I. Larry.

Zac Power’s world of adventure and espionage has been immensely successful, with around fifty exciting stories published and over a million copies sold in Australia alone. The ‘H.I. Larry’ pseudonym was used to keep the series consistent (and boringly, ensure that all Zac Power books are catalogued and shelved together!), and readers have long been intrigued by Larry’s secret identity.

The voracious reader demand for more Zac stories required a large writing team comprised of several brilliant Australian authors – many of whom have gone on to create their own fiction. Because of the success of the Zac Power series, and these authors’ rising profiles, Chris Morphew, Hilary Badger and Meredith Badger are now available to speak about their work on the Zac Power series.

A few things. One, where’s the editing? Lots of mistakes in the text. Two, why is every mission 24 hours? Does Zac not get tired? Is real life so structured? Three, how could a kid who doesn’t know how to play guitar suddenly learn how to play guitar and fool band members into thinking a kid is an adult guitarist? Four, I have concerns about the implied misogyny and poor values being shared.

I didn’t like it as much as some of the other books in this series. It could have been better if it had more action in it.
