My favourite character in the book is Devin because of his bravery, determination and being a loyal friend. I think it would be fun to be friends with Bounce because he seems to be around my age. I also found that he liked being around people he liked a lot. One of my favourite parts in the story is when the main characters have been kidnapped and the evil man has asked them to hand over their gadgets. They each hand over three different things. I liked this story because of the danger, mystery and suspense. It’s totally meant for the modern day kid, plus it is a comic book! I think people around the age of 10 to 14 would like this book. It was interesting, but a little
boring in one spot, that’s being picky.
