A quartet of teen spies, each with a specialty take on Shadow Cell, an

organization that threatens their world with nuclear disaster and other terriorist acts. In

this installment, the four must deactivate a nuclear power plant before it melts down. As

an introduction to the fast paced, stylized illustrations and sparse text of graphic novels,

this is a good starting series. The additional material at the end is reminiscent of the

factual information presented in the Magic Schoolbus series, as well as the extension of a

secondary plot. Easy to read, will appeal to boys and girls. 55 pages Reading Level 1.9 Ages 8-13 Grades 3-8
