Miles Taylor has spent a wonderful summer as Gilded, the superhero who saves Atlanta from catastrophe and disaster. It is very hard to return to being an ordinary middle school student. He realizes on the very first day of eighth grade that he doesn't want to go back to being a nobody. But the cape doesn't work for selfish reasons, so he has to expanded his field of trouble to look for. When both his father and his best friend (and partner in crime fighting) Henry call him on this new behavior, he runs off. He ends up landing himself and Henry in the worst situation possible -- in the clutches of someone who wants to end Gilded forever. This second novel in the Miles Taylor and the Golden Cape series is just as good as the first one, exploring a different side of being a superhero. Readers will definitely want to start at the beginning. Recommended for grades 4 & up.
