Danger lurks around every corner for a team of teenage freedom fighters.

Major tech corporation DeCobray both provides a cover for the terrorist organization called Cobra and sponsors high-tech Springfield Academy, which explains why, as the book opens, student Shana “Scarlett” O’Hara is hiding inside a bass drum in the faculty lounge. The unexpected arrival of a couple of teachers has interrupted Scarlett’s bug-planting mission and forced her into this embarrassing tight spot. After they leave, Scarlett completes her task and heads to the Arashikage Dojo for pizza and a rendezvous with the Average Joes: Scarlett and classmates Ichi No Zoro-me, aka Snake Eyes; Stan Magda, aka Clash; and Julien Marsh, aka Glitch are determined to foil Cobra’s nefarious plans. Close calls and daring exploits abound in Skovron’s second G.I. Joe Classified adventure. Written with sass, a strong pace, and episodes of comic relief, the story picks up where the series opener left off, shifting the narrative focus from Stan to Scarlett. For her, the danger lands too close to home. She learns to trust no one, not even the elderly ninjas of the Arashikage clan, even if they are Snake Eyes’ adopted family. The twisty adventure features robots, secret tunnels, and Machiavellian villain Baroness Anastasia, whose plans involve destroying both Cobra and the Average Joes. As before, the book features a multiracial, multicultural cast.

Crackerjack science fiction action with a martial arts chaser. (Adventure. 10-13)
