Prepare yourself for another wild yet amazing adventure! This time Reynie, Sticky, Kate, and Constance are back again to save The Whisperer from its wicked inventor, Mr. Leodroptha Curtain. The story begins with an explanation of the prisoner's dilemma, which I found quite interesting. The problem started when Constance was missing. Her runaway was followed by a total blackout in the town, causing chaos everywhere. The chaos was used by Mr. Curtain and his gang, The Executive, to trap theI know this book may not objectively deserve five stars, but I just *clenches fist* love this series so much. It feels like home.
Another fantastic adventure with the quirky Mysterious Benedict Society kids. Love it!
THIS WAS SO GOOD WoWIE! I had to lay in bed for about an hour and stare at a wall because I was so sad it ended.
It just keeps getting more and more ridiculous. In a world where grown men electroshock small children, hit them on the head with pipes and threaten to break their legs, NO ONE THINKS TO BRING A GUN. What do they bring to combat electricity shooting masochists? Rubber gloves (that can defy physics and REPEL electricity. Yeah, I know, lame) and their other tool. A boomerang. It's like a bad episode of MacGyver. "Oh no, MacGyver, there's only 35 seconds on the bomb. What will you do? It's ok, I
A fun, fast read, even for adults. However, I cannot pretend that it is anywhere as good as The Mysterious Benedict Society, or even quite as good as book #2, The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Journey. The situations are increasingly strained as far as believability, as well as being simply less weighty than the original book's. Certain elements - Mr. Benedict's narcolepsy at inopportune moments, Milligan's ridiculous tendency towards injury, etc - are becoming rather rote at this
Four and a half stars, actually. The wit so prevalent in the first book has diminished and is almost non-existent. The plot significantly improved from book 2. Even though I never quite figured out what exactly Mr. Curtain was planning (maybe I was just reading too fast for my brain to register the necessary details), it still was good. *spoiler/* I did NOT see the trap baited with clues coming! */spoiler* Constance is back to her normal self, as is Reynie. I mentioned that Milligan is amazing.
