About the author

Blake A. Hoena grew up in central Wisconsin, where, in his youth, he wrote stories about robots conquering the Moon and trolls lumbering around in the woods behind his parents house, and the fact that the trolls were hunting for little boys had nothing to do with Blake’s pesky brothers. Later, he moved to Minnesota to pursue a Masters of Fine Arts degree in Creative Writing from Minnesota State University, Mankato.

Since graduating, Blake has written more than thirty books for children, including retellings of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the Perseus and Medusa myth. Most recently, he’s working on a series of graphic novels about two space alien brothers, Eek and Ack, who are determined to conquer our big blue home.

My daughter enjoyed it, and it was okay for a young reader type of book.

Easy read, for a Young Adult book on another challenge. Batman is always entertaining and Poison Ivy is on my favorite villians.

A good beginning book for Batman fans.

Even though it written for young readers I think it was really lame. Even when I was a young reader I wouldn't have read it. Of course I have a very high IQ

Not bad for a children's version of batman. Loosely based on the Batman Animated series.
