Description Toward Books The Cloak Society (The Cloak Society #1)
The first in a thrilling, action-packed middle grade trilogy, which School Library Journal declared "will likely find the same wide appeal as Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson books. The Cloak Society: An elite organization of supervillains graced with extraordinary powers. Ten years ago the Cloak Society was defeated by Sterling City's superheroes, the Rangers of Justice, and vanished without a trace. But the villains have been waiting for the perfect moment to resurface. . . . Twelve-year-old Alex Knight is a dedicated junior member of Cloak who has spent years mastering his telekinetic superpowers and preparing for the day when Cloak will rise to power again. Cloak is everything he believes in. But during his debut mission, Alex does the unthinkable: He saves the life of a Junior Ranger of Justice. Even worse . . . she becomes his friend. And the more time he spends with her, the more Alex wonders what, exactly, he's been fighting for.

Middle grade fun for all ages. I really enjoyed this book, the superpowered teens was an interesting aspect. I'm a comic book fan and so I'm always interested in books, especially middle grade level, for my kids. This is one that I'll definately add to their shelf. I grew up in a small town in West Texas and so I've been to Sterling City lots of times. It really put a smile on my face as I was reading this book whenever it mentioned Sterling City.

This book fuels the part of your mind that loves completely out of the world fantasy, even though it is almost relatable. A group of superpowered people, the Cloak Society, battle their rival group called the Rangers. Even though it is something the real world has never experienced, the characters are normal.

The intro narrates things from the perspective of an outside viewpoint, and slightly tongue in cheek . . . until we finally zero in on Alex (our protagonist).The resulting story isn't all that surprising, but it is entertaining

With the popularity of X-Men, Marvel comics and the like, this book will be just the thing for 4th through 6th grade readers, and maybe a bit older. Alex is a budding super villain who is struggling to find his niche within his family and their organization, The Cloak Society. "Cloak" has been trying to best the Rangers of Justice, their super hero counterparts, for years and think that with modifications to a particularly powerful gun and the skills of the younger super villains in training,
