Another thrilling Zac Power adventure! How cool to be pulled out of maths class to go on Spy Boot Camp! But when a top GIB spy goes missing, Zac faces the biggest test of his spy career yet...
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.
I wanted to read this because kids at my library are super keen on Zac Power. I get the appeal - he's exciting, cool, etc. - but I really wasn't crazy about the writing style. I'll keep buying them because seven-year-olds will certainly read them.
My 8 yr old gave this a 4 star. Too young for my personal tastes, so I had to ask him. :) A nice little book to add to the list of first chapter books. Has black and white pictures on several pages and chapters that are not too long.
This one was better from my standpoint, but my doesn't care! He likes them all, even the ones that are boring for me to read. He's a Zac power fan at three years old.
