Synopsis: An ordinary kid like Ben Braver is no match for a band of super villains, but he may be humanity's only hope in Marcus Emerson's Ben Braver and the Vortex of Doom.

The world will never be the same . . .

When the baddest of bad guys threatens the world with a giant black hole, Ben Braver is the only one who can stop it. Ready or not, he's about to learn what it really means to be a hero.


The Ben Braver series is “a crazy fun ride--action packed and loaded with laughs!” says Max Brallier, author of the New York Times–bestselling series The Last Kids on Earth.

Review: Again, I still love all of the illustrations and the characters! The character develop continues to amaze me with how great it is and the POV is just as engaging as it was in book one. The pacing picked up in this one and the plot really drew me in from the first page. I think this book is the best one in the series.

However, there are still dark themes, so reader discretion advised!

Verdict: Again, a great read for graphic novel lovers looking to go into novels!
