While I recommend Masterminds, I cannot recommend the audiobook. Each chapter shifts perspectives between the kids and the audiobook uses different readers for each. Most are good but one reads dialog for the female characters with a really annoying voice. The other readers read the girls normally so it's inconsistent and annoying.
The book doesn't end in a cliffhanger but it's definitely not a satisfying conclusion. Have book 2 ready.
Another great book for my classroom library. Fun and adventurous, my boys will love it.
If I were going to rank Gordon Korman's books, this would come near the bottom of the list. Its basically all groundwork for the series and terribly bland. The premise is interesting though and the set-up intriguing enough to justify reading the next book.
I loved this book! The plot was crazy and even I didn't expect some of the turns! The protagonists were fun and I adored them! When I read it I couldn't believe how real some of it seemed! There was so much in the story line, I was hanging on to every bit of it! It even had humor that was actually funny! This is told in first person and in present tense, which adds to the excitement. I couldn't put it down, it was so good! I'm pleased with this well-written book, and I will be reading the next books as soon as possible. Go request Masterminds from your library now!
