Toy Academy: Ready for Action




Labels









Toy Academy: Ready for Action by Brian Lynch

I didn't realize this was part of a series but this is the second book in the Toy Academy series.  A fun read from the writer of the film, "Minions," and a writer of "The Secret Life of Pets."   Its a bummer when you go through all the learning to be a super hero only to find out you are going to be a side kick to one of the jerkiest guys at the academy, arrogant Rex Everything, who's name says it all.   Then, an evildoer toy named Tempest Bloodcloud starts reeking havoc and don't get me started on those sweet Care Bears she has totally turned bad!  WHAT???? Yep, that and more in this action packed thriller that will also have you cracking up as you learn those dear toys from your childhood may have had sinister pasts.  YIKES!   A fun book but I recommend the reader starts with the first one which will lay the ground work for these characters.    Fun, probably more for the younger set but Sci-fiers will find fun parallels here, too.  I recommend the series to anyone interested in toys both  loving and nefarious, laughing - lots of good lines to be found here and to all who enjoy good juvenile reads.
