H.I.V.E.
This story is about: Otto Malpense was picked to go to H.I.V.E. but he has to complete his training before he can. He finds it shocking that he has to spend 6 years studying things that he can already do.
The part I enjoyed most was: Was where the massive sonic shockwaves tore through the hanging forest of stalactites, shattering their centuries old grip on the cavern ceiling.
However, I did not enjoy: The bit that says: the villain gets all the best lines, has the best costumes, has the ultimate power and wealth, I thought it went on a bit.
My score out of ten for this book is: 7
I would recommend this book to age group, because: 12+, because they’d understand more about the book.

He says he has such a natural talent - but he needs to escape, but how?
The part I enjoyed most was: when he was training in the H.I.V.E. Otto was in a helicopter
However, I did not enjoy: The beginning
My score out of ten for this book is: 6
I would recommend this book to age group, because: 9+, because you have to be confident
