Publisher's summary

Electra - the beautiful, unflappable girlfriend of teen super Kid Sensation - headlines her own adventure for the first time.

A foundling adopted and raised by the Alpha League (the world's greatest superhero team), Electra has exhibited super powers since infancy. However, her past has remained a mystery for the most part, with those few people with any knowledge of her background being reluctant to talk.

Refusing to remain ignorant of her own origins, Electra embarks on a fact-finding mission intent on discovering who she really is. However, in addition to providing more questions than answers, her investigation causes her to cross paths with a powerful group of supervillains, who see in her a means of furthering their goal of world domination.

Finding herself in the crosshairs, Electra must now find a way to stop those seeking to exploit her unique talents for their own nefarious purposes. Because if she can't, the world will pay a heavy price.

Well worth the time.

I received a free review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
After having really enjoyed the main series I have really enjoyed learning about how Mouse became who and what he is in the main series.
I really enjoyed the narration of this book I thought that it was very well done, and I am hoping that the narrator does the rest of the series.

Electrifying

I teally loved being able to delve further into another character. I loved learning more about Elecktra and her origins. I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook, and this is my honest review.

great addition to the kid sensation universe

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

This is a great spin off story in the kid sensation universe. If you liked the other books in the series, you'll enjoy this one.

Get amped as the kid sensation world grows

You have got to love when an author starts expanding the universe of a great character. We all love our main character but we also live many of the minor characters that appear in a story. We lament about how we wish we knew more about them or that they had their own story. Kevin is now delivering those stories to us. Mouse’s story was awesome and so is amped. Get ready to learn more about this young heroine. She is far more than just kid sensations girlfriend. Get ready to learn more about her and some of. The sinister characters and organizations that are out here waiting to confront the alpha league. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator or publisher

Quick read

I recieved this book free and my review is voluntary. It was also cool to see this world from a different perspective, and it gave us nice side story on the other people in Jim's life. As always, looking forward to the next book.

When the kid is away....

While Kid Sensation is offworld his girlfriend, Electra, gets to take the spotlight in her own story. Amped puts Electra front and centre as she goes on a mission of discovery. Orphaned as a child, with no real knowledge of her parents, she goes in search of who she is and who he family was. A path that will take her down roads she may not wish to go, and into the path of one of the most dangerous super villains in history.

Other than the fact that Kid Sensation is a thing, and is currently off world, there isn't too much you need to know jumping into this story. It can be standalone, although it does give some information that may be spoilers for earlier Kid Sensation books. Nothing major, but enough to be cautious. Unlike the Mouse side story, this one takes place in the present, concurrent with the KS books. It is not a prequel.

Overall it is an enjoyable, quick story that expands the Kid sensation universe.

Narration by Elizabeth Klett is good. Well paced, engaging and interesting. Great to listening to, and filled with energy and various characters voices and emotions.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this review voluntarily.

Electra's Story

This is Electra's stoty. Electra is the girlfriend of the main character (Jim) in the first three books of this series. As an orphan, Electra's origins are shrouded in mystery. In this book she embarks on a journey to learn about her parents and runs into trouble along the way. Elizabeth Klett does an excellent job with the narration. Her voice brings Electra to life.

Excellent background story of Amp!!

At first was not sure if it was going to be a rehash of original story but from Amp's point of view. After it got really going in was a EXCELLENT background story and fill in so much the original story didn't cover. I highly recommend anyone who listened/read the Kid Sensation stories to listen/read this story!!

Great Follow Up to Kid Sensation Novel(s)

A great follow up to the Kid Sensation Novel. You will definitely need to read or listen to “Kid Sensation # 1” at the least. There are some events referenced from book # 2 “Mutation” but these are explained again by the author so reading “Mutation” isn’t required.

This story follows Electra, Jim’s girlfriend, and her quest for answers about her childhood. The author does a good job showing he can write from the point of view of a butt-kicking super powered girl.

Wise choice picking a female narrator for the audible version.

A Fun Listen

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, and found it very entertaining. Electra is trying to learn about her parents that were killed when she was a baby. Of course, she gets her friends to help her break some laws, but nothing to serious. Of course she finds herself in way to deep as she learns the truth. Very enjoyable, with lots of fun characters and lots of action. A good listen for a short commute.
