Recruit, The

In this first in a series graphic novel, a young teenage boy has his life changed by events that he can not control. James is forced to join a secret government organization that uses kids to get information on terrorists. This story tells of James’s training and his first mission.

The writing style is written from a teenager’s point-of-view; the language is clear and one that a teenager would use. The artwork is outstanding; the anatomy poses of the characters are true to form and the backgrounds are detailed. The story hooks a reader immediately and can keep one’s attention throughout the entire book. Note that there is some violence in the book and a few actions that may not be suited for younger children (smoking, drinking). This book is recommend for those readers who enjoy action novels.
