Synopsis

The second installment of the action-packed fantasy thrill ride that began with The Accidental Hero!

Jack and his fellow students are now well into their School of Thought training and are “sidekicking” for official, card-carrying super heroes. But even though Jack feels more at home in the Imagine Nation, he’s still hiding secrets from his friends Skerren and Allegra.
     Jack is busy trying to find out how far the Rüstov sleeper virus has spread, working to find a cure, and striving to avoid the dire future that Revile warned him about. Meanwhile, Jonas Smart is working just as hard to discover what Jack is hiding from everyone. When a rogue Secreteer—the protectors of Imagine Nation citizens’ secrets—starts selling info to the highest bidder, Smart is ready and waiting. If Jack is going to help prevent a second Rüstov invasion, keep Smart from discovering his secrets, and find out what a shadowy, half-mad Secreteer knows about his long-lost father, he’ll need to learn to trust his friends and find the true path toward becoming a hero himself.

There were a few places that were simplified or made too easy, but otherwise I was satisfied with the plot and characters. I don't think there was anywhere where I was impressed by the story until the ending. I got quite annoyed with Jack as he did a lot of shirking his duty and ignoring things that......more

Another enjoyable installment. I very much enjoyed this book. I felt bad for Jack as he tried his best to do the right thing, but then gets the majority of the blame despite someone else encouraging him to keep the secrets that end up getting him in trouble. After that ending I am very much looking......more
