Irreverent, deadpan comedy about a mega-arrogant spy / detective who works for his mum

The main character is such a total **** it's hilarious. Sporting my one of my favourite TV quotes: "sorry I couldn't hear you over the deafening sound of my own awesomeness."

It's very fun. And a little bit stupid. But in a clever way!

Kudos

Sarah (7800 KP) rated The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August in Books

Brilliant

This was a recommendation from a work colleague and I cannot thank him more, as this was my favourite read of 2016. Brilliantly written, with a fantastic and engrossing story with a sci-fi-esque spin. I couldn't put this down. It moves seamlessly from a drama to an action/spy novel and Harry is a loveable protaganist. My only negative would be that I didn't want it to end!

Making Action Classy

A Fun And Elegant Movie

This new twist to a secret service has put elegance and honor to a modern day spy movie and as few realize has an actual background in real history that brings a complete brilliance to the whole film. Along with being a heart whelming tale about coming of age this film offers a little something for everyone.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2357 KP) rated NERDS: National Espionage, Rescue, and Defense Society (NERDS, #1) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Jackson Jones goes from hero to zero when he gets braces. But that's also how he finds out about the super spies operating out of his elementary school. This book is funny and creative while still delivering a credible plot (well, for a spy spoof). Kids of all ages will love it.
