内容简介

All fun and games?

not.

There's a hot new online gaming phenomenon that's got Team Spy Gear's classmates enthralled. But when the mass enthusiasm for the game gets kind of, well, intense, our spies decide they've got to figure out who's behind the game. Fast. Oh, and also how it all relates to the oldest surviving epic in British literature.

You know, just a typical day's work for our under-the-radar tween spies living in suburbia...

From School Library Journal
Grade 4-7–This second volume in the series, inspired by Wild Planet Toys Spy Gear electronic products, reads as though its a scene-by-scene description of a TV series on Nickelodeon or the Disney Channel. Team Spy Gear is a squad of four 11- to 14-year-olds who together have the skills of an inventor, a superb tech-head, a master videogame player, and a gymnast. When they discover that children who avidly play a cool new electronic game suddenly begin to exhibit strange behavior (such as helping adults keep the school spotless), they know that somethings up, and soon find a suspicious link between the game and the literary classic Beowulf. None of the characters is vivid or interesting, and the plot is a silly excuse to show off the teams high-tech gadgetry, although some of the jokes are pretty good. Unless the first book is hot among the kids you serve, give this one a pass.–Walter Minkel, New York Public Library
