Age Level: 11-14 | Grade Level: 5th and up
The secret is now out about the Ghost Network's identities . . . and everything is in danger of going up in smoke. With evil tech icon, Roy Lykos, on the prowl, John and the gang head to a top secret center in the Sahara desert to prepare for battle. This center is a bit different though—every student has the same special implants and the competition is sky high. As the day of reckoning approaches, the Ghost Network gang will need every bit of help they can get from their extraordinary classmates if they are to wrestle back control of their minds and bodies.
I received this book in exchange for my honest review.
So, I've read the first book in this series and now have read the second. This is a mind-boggling series. The kids with superpowers are totally badass. The techo-aspects and computer sciences, uplinks and supercomputers... Kids who are secret agents out to stop a nefarious evil-doer... Totally bad-ass.
I love this series! The action, the adventure, the betrayals, the enemies, the uplinks, downloads and psycho babble.. All in one thin, fast-paced reading. Lots of twists and unexpected turns, new characters along with the old, artificial implants, heightened awareness... I wish.
I'm excited for the third book since the second finishes on an UT OH! This is a great read for middle-grade readers and early YAs. Lots of relatable stuff and cool teen antics. You want to talk about schools for the gifted... how about teenage cyber agents?!
I love this book and series, great and exciting reading.
Ihan ok jatko erittäin hyvälle ekalle osalle. Hiukan tätä vaivasi sellainen kakkososalle tyypillinen haahuilu ja tyhjäkäynti. Mietin myös, että oliko kirja pakko aloittaa niin sekavasti. Mulla meni parikymmentä sivua ennen kuin pääsin kyytiin ja heikompi lukija olis varmaan siinä vaiheessa jo nakannut kirjan mäkeen. Jos nuortenkirjoissa haluaa kikkailla takaumilla ja muilla, olis heikkojen lukijoitten kannalta armollisempaa tehdä se vasta, kun juoni on jo napannut otteeseensa ja kaikki istuvat tukevasti rattailla. Tätä ykkösosaa on nimittäin mennyt paljon lainaan ja yllättävän kivasti myös juuri niille hankalille tapauksille, jotka eivät lue paljon tai jotka eivät koskaan löydä "mitään hyvää" luettavaa. Ja nehän ne olis niitä, jotka sitä kiinnostavaa luettavaa ja lukemista todella kipeästi kaipaisivat.
Ensimmäisen osan jälkeen ajattelin, että tästä kirjasarjasta tulee huippu. Väärässä olin. Toinen ei kuitenkaan ollut mielestäni niin nopeatempoinen kuin ensimmäinen. Enimmäkseen se kuvasi vaan Haamuverkon harjoittelua Skarabeen temppelissä. Loppua kohden kirjassa alkoi tapahtua enemmän ja kirjan tarina vaikutti mielenkiintoisemmalta. Mutta en tiedä jotenkin tämä kirja oli raskas lukea. Mutta samalla ihan ok. Ensimmäinen osa oli parempi.
I have read the first book and I liked it so I decided to read the second too. It didn't disappoint me. I like the ongoing plot, mystery and betrayal, though I might have liked the first book a bit more than this one, but its still pretty good!!! The third book of this series is on my to read list, I'm excited to start it!
I really enjoyed the first book in the series so I was excited to read the second book, and I'm glad to say it didn't disappoint. The characters were still great and I loved the plot in this book a little more than the other.
All four friends have been reunited and are now off to the Sahara Desert to try to hide from the angry people chasing them. They will need all their tech and survival savvy to come through this escapade safely
Lots of action and adventure. The writing has become more even than in book 1. There is one more book in the series.
