Flood-A-Geddon! (Agent 9 #1)

by James Burks (Author)

Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade
Series: Agent 9

Agent 9 and his his robotic partner FiN are called in by the Super-Secret Spy Service to save the world from bumbling supervillain King Crab and his diabolical plans to melt the polar ice caps and build a massive water park.

The Super-Secret Spy Service's mission is to keep the world safe from maniacal villains. And Agent 9 is one of its best operatives. Although Nine always manages to complete the mission, there is occasionally some collateral damage (like the priceless Pigasso painting that was destroyed while foiling an art heist). So Agent 9 is now on probation. But when bumbling supervillain King Crab manages to overtake S4 headquarters, there is no one else to turn to. Nine--along with a robotic partner named FiN--is all that stands between King Crab and his diabolical plans to melt the polar ice caps and build a massive water park.

Can Agent 9 prove to be the right cat for the job by overcoming impulsive behavior and saving the world from a complete flood-a-geddon?

Review quotes

"Funny, adorable, and action-packed!" —Kazu Kibuishi, #1 New York Times bestselling creator of the Amulet series 

"Sure to make readers gasp and giggle. While escapes, explosions, and scribbly, jewel-toned art will no doubt draw in younger readers, Burks' dry humor will also keep a more sophisticated crowd engaged and chuckling. Readers will be sure to keep an eye out for 9's next adventure, but they'll definitely want to give this first romp a few rereads in the meantime." —BCCB

"Burks delivers an endearing tale about a secret agent character a la James Bond, but much zanier. Fans of Burks' Bird & Squirrel series will gobble up this new offering. [It] will elicit chuckles from young and old readers alike." —School Library Connection
