Michael Vey, Rise of the Elgen by Richard Paul Evans, a book review

Michael Vey, Rise of the Elgen by Richard Paul Evans continues the story of Michael Vey, Prisoner of Cell 25. He is a kid with unusual abilities because his genetics were messed with… along with a few other kids his age. Michael Vey continues his effort to free his mother from the Elgen.

In so doing, he and his friends learn more about the Elgen's rise to power and their plan to 'restructure' the world. Along the way, Michael learns more about his electric powers, as do the others in the electroclan.

This is an interesting story. My daughters and I thoroughly enjoy it. The writing is very easy to read and it is a story in which it is all too easy to get lost (read: forget chores and just read all day). Thankfully it's not too long, so it's only one day down, rather than multiple.

My daughters and I recommend it to any 10 and older readers. It might be a little too intense for immature 10 year old and younger children, even if they are advanced readers.

Have you read Michael Vey, Rise of the Elgen by Richard Paul Evans? What did you think about it?
