Today I’m spotlighting a new middle grade novel by author Bryan Davis!
About the Book
Eddie Hertz is smart, real smart. He has to be. What other twelve-year-old patrols the streets of Nirvana alone, hoping to foil the schemes of the evil Mephisto? Since Eddie is small for his age, he trusts in his Batman-style gadgets belt and acrobatic skills as well as lots of experience, like knowing how to swing across dark alleys without being seen.
Eddie has a dream, to become like Damocles, Nirvana’s great superhero. To make that dream come true, Eddie invented a device that is supposed to give him superpowers, but using it on himself is dangerous, maybe even fatal. He doesn’t have the nerve to try it.
When Mephisto unleashes an earthquake machine on the city, Eddie gets a surprising teammate — his quirky eight-year-old sister, Samantha, who comes up with an unexpected way to help Eddie in the frantic battle to prevent the biggest earthquake of all.
Since Damocles has lost his ability to help in physical form, Eddie and Samantha are the only hope for Nirvana and the world.

Thank you for the post, Jaye!
ReplyDeleteThis is AWESOME!!! I've loved every one of Bryan Davis' books ever since reading his Dragons in Our Midst series. :D
ReplyDeleteAs to what superhero I'd be... I'd most likely be the super-loyal sidekick of the big-time superhero. ;D (or Wonder Woman. I'd be Wonder Woman!)
Ooh! This book looks fantastic & a perfect new read for my younger brother. :) I love Bryan Davis's novels. Thanks so much for sharing with us, Ms Knight!
ReplyDeleteI would be a solo hero with mental powers (so I wouldn't have to get too physical with the bad guys), preferably with something unique like psychometry or probability computation. Can you tell I've thought about this a lot? xD Either that or the superhero I played as a girl, a heroine who can move faster than time called Hummingbird. ;)
Happy Belated Birtday, Jaye!!! :D
ReplyDeleteEep! One of my most favorite authors in the whole world! : )
