“Friends aren’t always a liability, you know. Sometimes they’re the best asset we have.”
Fun middle grade action adventure series with an unlikely hero. This is the third book to be released as a graphic novel.
When Ben Ripley accidentally nearly kills the principal, he's expelled from Spy School. His friend Erica tells him he's washed up, so had better take advantage of any opportunity that comes his way.
On his first day back at his old school, Ben is surprised to run into Joshua Hallal, his old nemesis who had been presumed dead. When Joshua offers Ben a place in SPYDER (the evil spy group), Ben remembers Erica's advice and agrees to flip.
Within days at the evil spy school, Ben is contacted by Erica and he understands he's been planted at the other school. The rest of the book is about how Ben discovers what SPYDER is up to and how that evil plot is thwarted.
As with the previous books in the Spy School series, the story is full of great characters, lots of action, and a good dose of humor.
The series was original written as chapter books, but I started reading it when the first volume came out as a graphic novel illustrated by Anjan Sarkar. The drawings are really well done, conveying the action, emotions, and reactions. Hints to the evil plot can be found in the panels if you look carefully.
Can't wait for the graphic novel edition of the fourth book!
Thanks to the publisher for a digital review copy.

Meh. Well executed children’s graphic novel. Light and cute. Good for what it is.
This was a great graphic novel adaption of this installment of the Spy School series. I really enjoyed the storyline of this book as well as the illustrations. This is a great series for middle graders who love spy stories.

The 3rd novel in a series turned graphic novel, Evil Spy School is a funny elementary/middle grade spy book that follows a young Benjamin Ripley, math prodigy. After a serious accident at school, ben is expelled and gets an offer to join the CIAs opponent, SPYDER. I found this book perfect for grades 3-6 (ages 8-11) and would recommend the novel for grade 7+(12+)
