Thanks to the publisher for giving me this book to read in exchange for an honest review. ------------ Guys! I hope you like science experiments and kids with perseverance and lots of wits, because that’s exactly what you get in Nick and Tesla’s Robot Army Rampage. I just can’t start off this review any other way than saying how enjoyable Nick and Tesla’s Robot Army Rampage was to read. I really enjoyed Nick and Tesla’s High Voltage Danger Lab when I was reading it and was super stoked to read this next installment. Right from the very beginning the reader is thrown into the sort of hectic lives of Nick and Tesla who are, as ever, very persistent and witty. Super smart, throughout the book they build robots (cool!) not only for fun, but also to help them in trying to catch a thief. As if that alone isn’t cool enough, there are instructions included so that the reader can build some awesome robots as well. Cool science and robotics aside, the story itself is engaging and fun to read. Following Nick and Tesla as they try to catch a mysterious robber is equal parts exciting and distressing. Are they going to get themselves in over their heads or is everything going to pan out fine? And will they solve the mystery? I can tell you right now that I NEVER guessed who was behind the robberies in Half Moon Bay. It came as a total shock to me. I don’t know, you guys. An enthralling mystery, cool projects you can do yourself, and some amazing (and rather perceptive) kids equals up to be a whole lot of awesome contained in one book. Add in the great illustrations scattered throughout and I couldn’t recommend this book any more. Nick and Tesla’s Robot Army Rampage was so much fun to read, and with an ending like that I’m making grabby hands at the next installment in the series.
