Customer Reviews

An Excellent adventure even for older readers

This book was fun to read and follow along with the adventures of the kids even for this older guy. I could relate to the antics and challenges the kids were facing as I recognize some of them from my own childhood as a boy growing up in a small west Texas town. A thoroughly enjoyable book to read. I would recommend it for anyone, 4th grade or higher that likes to read kid adventures and problem solving that goes with it.

Terrific Read!

I throughly enjoyed the adventures of Sebastian Reckless...new and quirky, funny and a smart read. Doesn't talk down to kids...I've been a teacher for thirty years and the boys in my class keep my copy circulating all year long. They can't wait for the next book! Just wonderful and highly recommended!

A Wild Ride!

A grand adventure for kids of all ages! Sly and smart, funny and full of action, Sebastian Reckless is a delight!!

rifling through Napoleon's Bonaparte's bank account

Sebastian Reckless is the type of book I was looking for when I was a kid, a superhero story that turns the genre around from the inside one laser blast at a time. A subtlely subversive epic where the 10 year-old hero Sebastian has a note from the President that he can skip school (to, you know, keep the country safe), demons do business in the banking industry, and a climatic scene that literally takes place in Hell (and back!). Add to this Sebastian's constantly shape-shifting assault machines (beautifully depicted in the glossy-colored illustrations, idiosyncratically drawn by the author himself), three-headed security guards, and a liberal sprinkling of Greek mythology references, and you have the type of book I would want my child reading - if you're interested in rearing a literate, innovative, wit-filled child. Funny, poingant, Pythonesque - the screenplay for the inevitable film version will easily write itself.

Great Book!

This book is great for kids of all ages - including adults! Sebastion Reckless is an adventure from start to finish. I loved it :)
