Review
Praise for Jimmy Coates: Revenge "Boys love this stuff, and so do girls. Jimmy is a pint-sized verision of Robocop or Terminator! Like Anthony Horowitz's splendid fantasies, [these novels] tap into almost everything a bolshy boy wants and feels. Immensely clever, immediately engaging, they will prepare a child for Orwell and Huxley." Amanda Craig, The Times "Fast-paced and intelligently written." The Bookseller "the sort of book to wow reluctant boy readers away from computer games and into the pages of a book." Books for Keeps "Joe Craig has produced another thrilling page-turner." Jewish Chronicle "A rollicking good spy romp." School House magazine. Praise for Jimmy Coates: Target "With cinematic skill, Craig unrolls a series of action-packed scenes, with a new crisis at every turn of the page. It's gripping, but not mindless" Angela Kilverstein Praise for Jimmy Coates: Killer "!a totally excellent adventure -- a lit bit Bond, a lit bit Matrix and a lot of what you've never read before. Someone make this into a movie!" Flipside "A gripping action-thriller that's packed with twists." Funday Times "[Joe Craig] has developed the sharp satirical edge that keeps the new generation of boys hooked on books. Which is, in itself, the act of a superhero." Amanda Craig, The Times "The perfect primer to the Bourne series by Robert Ludlum." VOYA "!By turns excitingly action-packed, believably sensible and character driven, and then refreshingly paranoid, this is a book I'd be happy to recommend to the kid in everyone." Vector

While they are there, Jimmy finds himself experiencing headaches accompanied by flashing images -- something that hasn't happened to him before. Are they prophetic visions?

Revenge will come. But what form will it take?

Great series for young boys starting to read longer chapter books, May 28 2009
By Ric - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jimmy Coates Revenge 3 (Paperback)
Joe Craig has produced a slick series targeted directly at adolescent boys. Can't remember where I saw the first book reviewed, but I picked it up at the library for my son. He ripped through it in a few days, then I read it too. Fun, slightly violent but not graphic (appropriate for 10+), with strong messages about right and wrong, loyalty, and family. I think 6 books in the Jimmy Coates series are currently published; one more due in October 2009 and the final book in the series in mid-2010. The only downside? Most of the books in the series are NOT available in the US, so I paid UK-to-US shipping rates. I was able to find a couple of the books on UK used-booked sites to save a little and they were all in excellent condition, appeared to be completely unused.

wrong book, Jun 17 2010

This review is from: Jimmy Coates Sabotage (Paperback)
I bought this book thinking it was Jimmy Coates: Revenge, even though the picture is of Jimmy Coates: Sabotage. I received Jimmy Coates: Sabotage and am trying to find Jimmy Coates: Revenge. Revenge should be book number three and Sabotage book number four in the series. I really would like to read number three before I read number four. Can anyone help me out?
