Resumen del Editor

The fearsome foursome is back in the second installment of the New York Times bestselling series praised by Rick Riordan!

The Mysterious Benedict Society is up against a new mission, significantly closer to home. After reuniting for a celebratory scavenger hunt, Reynie, Kate, Sticky, and Constance are forced to go on an unexpected search—a search to find Mr. Benedict. It seems that while he was preparing the kids' adventure, he stepped right into a trap orchestrated by his evil twin Mr. Curtain.

With only one week to find a captured Mr. Benedict, the gifted foursome faces their greatest challenge of all—a challenge that will reinforce the reasons they were brought together in the first place and will require them to fight for the very namesake that united them.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"...this is not just a rip-roaring adventure with plenty of clever twists and hair's-breadth escapes, but also a warm and satisfying tale about friendship." - School Library Journal (*STARRED review*)

"Stewart keeps interest high throughout the journey with first-rate brainteasers, interludes of physical danger, and the children's own complex dynamics... [readers] will find this sequel a worthy successor." - Horn Book

"Trust, friendship, human nature, pride, and courage underlie the story and add depth... This classic struggle of good versus evil also includes the many layers in between." - VOYA

WOW!

okay to the point it was great! amazing book! mind blown!
its so great! I loved it!

Great young characters

The story was easy to follow and had good moral lessons in the lives of the children.

Fun for the entire family

We thoroughly enjoyed the story, the carefully developed characters, exciting story line and rich vocabulary. As a parent I especially appreciate the virtuous and considerate behavior of the children towards each other.

Better than the show and very different

After the boat nothing is the same about the book and the show it was a fun change of pace

Amazing book to read

This was a great book to read just for fun!I loved this book so much

Suspenseful and entertaining

This second installment of the Mysterious Benedict Society keeps the listener engaged and eager to hear how the children use their resourcefulness time and time again!

The narration was great! I love this book as well

Del Roy, whomever he may be made this experience so much better with the comforting voice filled with emotion that made me want to fall asleep.

Love it

It’s an amazing series, the execution is perfect and Del Roy is an amazing narrator!

My kids are hooked

These books are so intriguing and my kids are united in begging to listen! Can’t wait to start the next one!

Exciting Continuation

It is certainly typical to try to upstage the previous book when writing a series. Sometimes it works out and other times it falls flat. Gratefully, for this series, this second book really lived up to the task. All the characters really grew (literally of course for some of them, lol). Looking forward to continuing the series even more now.
