Hang on a sec, that sounds wrong. It’s not “powerless,” right? According to our discussion, some people do look to blurbs for guidance on finding great to books. In which case, I’m THRILLED to share the following rave review from Jeff Smith, author of the bestselling Bone series, on Matthew Cody’s debut novel Powerless:
At last! A superhero story about the kid who isn’t the superhero! Matthew Cody’s descriptions of pre-teen life and flying and tumbling through the stratosphere were so real and vivid, they almost gave me vertigo!
But that’s not all! From Jonathan Stroud, author of the bestselling Bartimaeus Trilogy, comes this great quote:
A fantastic story, thrillingly told. This book has a superpower—you can’t put it down.”
You can check out the blurbs and more information about Powerless and Matthew Cody on his new and improved website. Leave him a comment and let him know what you think!
