Book: Evil Spy School

 Author: Stuart Gibbs

 Age Range: 8-13

 Official Summary:

During a spy school game of Capture the Flag, twelve-year-old Ben Ripley somehow accidentally shoots a live mortar into the principal’s office—and immediately gets himself expelled. Not long after going back to the boring old real world, Ben gets recruited by evil crime organization SPYDER.

And he accepts.

As a new student in SPYDER’s evil spy school, which trains kids to become bad guys with classes like Counter Counterespionage and Laying Low 101, Ben does some secret spying of his own. He’s acting as unofficial undercover agent, and it becomes quickly apparent that SPYDER is planning something very big—and very evil.

Ben can tell he’s a key part of the plan, but he’s not quite sure what the plan is. Can Ben figure out what SPYDER is up to—and get word to the good guys without getting caught—before it’s too late?

What I think:

Oh, Ben. First you get yourself kicked out of school. Then you join the dark side, pretending to be a bad guy, spying for the good guys, when they don't even know where you are. Just great. Then he tries to spy on SPYDER, proving how hard that is. No computer, no internet, no going outside the headquarters, no communication with the world, nothing. After things take a couple of crazy, unimaginable turns, will Ben be able to stop SPYDER? 

 This is another great book by Stuart Gibbs. He keeps the classic neerdiness and comedy, while adding more characters into the mix. I especially like Ashley Sparks, and all her "I stuck that landing!" moments. I also thought Murray was as classic as ever. And, oh my, did Ben just make some progress with Erica?

 Like all the books in the series, this book can be for all ages, even though the age range says 8-13. There is no inappropriate content at all, so nothing to worry about. Make sure you read this book, it's great!

First Chapter of Spy School Fan-fiction

Hi everyone! this is my first fan-fiction, and it is of the Spy School Series. It takes place right after the newest book, Spy School Goes South. Please tell me if you think it's good, and what I should fix. Side Note: The review of a book will be up tomorrow. Second Side Note: I copied and pasted from google docs, and the formatting is all different. The first paragraph is to close together, but other than that, it's fine. A/N:  These are not my characters. All characters belong to Stuart Gibbs (besides one or two characters I'll introduce later). Also,  SPOILER ALERT!!!!!! If you haven't read all the books, this will spoils parts of them for you. Ok, I even edited the SSBI cover to look more like my fan-fiction. Anyhow, please Enjoy!

Spy School: Secret Service

Book: Spy School: Secret Service Author: Stuart Gibbs Age Range: 8-13 Official Summary: Thirteen-year-old Ben Ripley has had a lot of field success despite only just beginning his second year at Spy School, something graduates rarely experience. But he’d never have survived without the help from experienced agents and his friends. Now he’s been called in on a solo mission—and the fate of the United States of America is on his shoulders alone. The Mission: Prevent a presidential assassination by infiltrating the White House, and locating the enemy operative. But when the president’s son is as helpful as a hamster, and a trained SPYDER agent would never  appear  to be up to something (they’re far too clever for that), Ben may be in over his head this time. And when everything goes wrong, Ben must rely on his Spy School friends to save his reputation…but even friends can double-cross or be swayed to the enemy’s side. What I thought:  This one was great.
