You’ll speed through this second book in the illustrated, fast-paced superhero adventure following the aftermath of Noah’s Great Uncle Saul’s betrayal and destruction. Noah is consumed with anger which has serious consequences when he uses the feeling to boost his Gravitas powers. When Saul kidnaps 26 kids who were rejected from the Gravitas program, Noah and his friends are tasked with investigating his Grandma’s house to find clues to her brother’s whereabouts. With themes of managing emotions, friendship, betrayal, and friendship and a relatable main character, this is another exciting adventure you won’t want to put down!

The Minor Rescue is book #2 of The Amazing Adventures of Noah Minor.


Saul was a Gravitas scientist. Now, he is the current Gravitas most-wanted.

Noah was Saul's great-nephew.


Twenty-six middle schoolers were missing. Would Noah be able to find them and stop his Uncle Saul?


My favorite supporting character was Haley Foster. This book is great for middle schoolers who enjoy chapter books and karate.

Fun, imaginative book for kids! This is the 2nd book in a series, so please read the first book before you read this one. It really will make a difference! In the first book, the main character, Noah, learns a lot about life, but not in a preachy way. In this book, he will continue to improve his character yet still have a lot of fun with his friends. :) I definitely recommend this book for middle school age kids!
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the advance e-copy of this book! All opinions expressed are entirely my own.

The first book in the series was a fantastic read, and this second installment brings a fresh perspective. Noah’s character is far from perfect—he makes mistakes, ignores advice, and takes risks—but that’s what makes his journey compelling. His growth may take time, but it adds depth to the story. With plenty of action and superhero excitement, this book is sure to captivate young readers, especially those who enjoyed the first adventure. Fans of the series will definitely want to dive into this next chapter!

While I ended up really liking the first book in the series, I was less enamored with this second title. I found the main character, Noah, fairly annoying through most of the book. I certainly didn't mind that he is far from perfect and kept ignoring what people told him to end up making really bad decisions. But there were so many incidents of this and no hints that he was learning throughout most of the book. Of course he does learn in the end, but by then, in spite of a lot of action, I was bored. But...I'm an adult. Kids who like superheroes as well as kids who read and liked the first will definitely want to read this series entry.
