Jimmy Coates: Target
Jimmy Coates, Book 2
by Joe Craig
Jimmy Coates knew he was different from other eleven year old boys. He’d known it when two beefy men in
black suits tried to yank him away from his family, when they told him he was only 35% human, when he realized
the only reason for his existence was to be an unstoppable assassin. Jimmy spent much of his waking hours
fighting his programming, determined to be a normal child. But his life was far from normal. He joins forces
with his friends, Eva and Felix, to free not only Felix’s parents, but eventually Jimmy’s own mother as well.
Complicating matters is Jimmy’s discovery that he is not as unique as he thought. Now he must also be on guard
against a new enemy with powers equal to his own. How will he free the captives with this new threat looming
over him?
Jimmy Coates: Target is the second book of the Jimmy Coates series, soon to number five, with his
latest, Jimmy Coates: Sabotage, to be released in October. Author Joe Craig hooks his readers from the
very first page and keeps them glued to each action-packed adventure until its exciting conclusion. Although
written for the young teen audience, readers from upper elementary age through middle school will identify
with Jimmy in his quest to be like everyone else. With its cliff-hanger chapters and its fast-paced action
throughout, this series will be a big hit with both boys and girls alike. |
