I didn't enjoy this as much as I did Chris' other books.
It was a quick read and entertaining enough but I felt that Ben, as a character, didn't have much depth to him.
The plot in theory was good but how it was written felt a bit anticlimactic.
Overall, a good read though and I will read the rest of the series.

I noticed people had said the books are nothing like the movies and yet I was still surprised that they weren't.
Not a bad thing though, really enjoyed the book and plan to keep reading the series.

Reads like a copy and paste of Wikipedia pages. 2 stars because having it all in one book is cool, just a pity that the content isn't well put together

I'm really enjoying this series and how Zak continues to grow as a person and as his skills continue to improve even more.
Quick, entertaining reads.

Very glad to have been provided with an ARC for this book.
I don't often read books that are written by dual authors as I find that they often don't blend well together, which makes for awkward reading. With this, however, the story flowed beautifully and you would actually think it was written entirely by one person.
This has something for everyone in it; magic, suspense, romance, family relationships, witty banter, humour. To put so much in without dulling one topic over the other is impressive.
The story itself was superbly done and I did not want to put this down. I read it all in about a day and was so sad when I finished it!
There wasn't one character who I didn't find interesting and that is impressive, particularly with side characters as they're not always well put together.
Can't wait to read more from these talented authors!

Really enjoyed this, surprisingly original, considering how many of these kid spy books there are around.
Can't wait to get started on the next book!

This started off pretty well with some good action and what seemed like an interesting plot but I found myself a bit bored as the book went on.
I definitely am still of the opinion that Charlie Higson did a better job with Young Bond. With this, aside from Hugo, the side characters felt a bit flat. They just didn't feel very well developed.
Enjoyable enough and I will read the rest of them.

This was a quick, fun read. Stella is an amazing character and I would not want to get on her bad side! (Some might want to do though..)
I loved the side character, Grace. A bit crazy but somehow still loveable.
If you're looking for a fast read with some spice, a sassy mc goddess and witty banter; look no further!
Theo can honestly bake for me anytime.

This was an entertaining read but that ending dragged the entire book down because it made no sense.
Also, were we supposed to like Chris? I couldn't stand him.
