The Vindico

This is a superhero story with a twist as it takes the villains' side of the classic hero story. I enjoyed getting to meet the main characters and I am looking forward to reading more about their adventures in the next book.  I liked how the characters were against the villains at the beginning and then start to see things from their perspective.  It reminded me that there at least two sides to every story. There is a lot of action and the author created great images with his description of the events.  I also enjoyed the technical tools that the heroes use. I think grade 6 students would enjoy this as a read aloud.
