Yarrow Cheney and Carrie Cheney write a strong sequel in the Superworld series, it had that element that I was looking for and enjoyed from this type of book. The characters felt like they belonged with the first book and was engaged with what was going on in this chapter. It was everything that I was looking for and was glad I got to read this.

I somehow completely missed Superworld: Save Noah, so didn't realize right away that this was a sequel. It's done in a fascinating format; sort of like if Brian Selznik (Wonderstruck, The Marvels) used a more Pixar Inside Out style to illustrate a fantasy adventure title like Boniface's 2006 The Extraordinary Adventures of Ordinary Boy. There were a lot of books where the heroes had disappeared and characters had to decide to leave their evil pasts behind a few years ago, but as much as I love Bacon's Joshua Dread, Kraatz's The Cloak Society, or King's The Vindico, they don't circulate. This one might, with the copious illustrations. I might have to hunt down a print copy of the first book to see how hefty it is.

Definitely take a look at this one if your students are still interested in superheroes and supervillains!
