This was a reread and I can wholeheartedly say that this book still holds up (after it being something approximately close to 12ish years since I read it last) and is entertaining despite the fact that I’m not the target audience anymore.
I definitely plan on rereading the rest of the series (and the ones I never read back then) and see what I think!

I remember reading this in high school, and it obviously impressed me enough that I kept it on my list of "books I liked" and eventually got turned into a spreadsheet, that got turned into my Goodreads obsession! I figured it was finally time to read again and see if I still liked it.
Yup! This is classic spy action cleaned up for the middle-grade reader. I would watch a movie of this--it is a bit grittier than your disneyfied "spy-kids" fare, but still okay for kids. Exciting, but not unwholesome. It's FUN, and if every installment is as action-packed and unique as the first one I say this beats Hardy Boys all to heck. Thumbs up on the book! Lets see if the rest of the series passes muster.
