In the begining, Cadel feels at home with his new classmates. But one person keeps him from achieving his full evil genius potential and that is Kay-Lee. With the help, love and support of Kay-Lee, Cadel is able to see the Axis Institute and Dr. Roth for what they are. But can he get away from them before he is destroyed?
Catherine Jinks has a great writing style and I was hooked from the beginning. I have to give Jinks kudos. The first two chapters were a perfect mix of style, description, and character development. Being in love with her writing helped pull me forward doing the middle, when there were all sorts of complicated plans working through Cadel's mind.
This book is recommended for Teens (Ages 12 and up) and I would agree. Some of the computer jargon was hard to read and I have an engineering degree. There was also many instances of death in the book that pretty flippantly depicted. Jenks tried to linger on the deaths but it was pretty hard because there were so many deaths. Yes, these characters were truly evil.
I highly recommend this book for anyone who remotely liked Harry Potter and especially for anyone who secretly (or not so secretly) dreams of being an evil genius! For fun go to Axis Institute, take the quiz, and see if you qualify for an evil genius. Sadly, I didn't.
