Vordak the Incomprehensible
review 1: In this new book, the evil supervillian Vordak wants to create a powerful freeze ray that will turn all the water on the planet to ice. But first, he starts with his Abominable Age-Reduction Ray. Whoops, when he tests it on himself, he ends up only being old enough to enter junior high school. Problem is, the balsoid coil broke and now he can't reverse the effects of his Abominable Age-Reduction Ray until he finds a new one. Good thing Farding Junior High has one. So, Vordak, who has a penchant for alliteration, joins the ranks of students at Farding and attempts to rule the school while searching out the balsoid coil. If he gets a chance to wipe out his arch-nemesis, Captain Virtue, in the process, it will be all that much better. "MUAHAHAHAHA!!!"Filled with zany characte... morers like Principal Combover, who enjoys making public announcements over the loud speaker, Marlena Lurchburger--Vordak's rival for school president, lunch lady Agnes Lipwartz, and janitor Burfus Waxclog, Rule the School will have your reader ages 9 and up turning page after page. In a unique twist, Vordak banters with an unknown reader throughout the book.The entire story takes place over eight weeks with Vordak bringing you through each week from Week 8 to current day. He is kind enough to start you off with "A Word of Warning," which gives you some insight into this evil, sarcastic, inventive genius.Kids everywhere will want to read this one. It's too funny to pass up.
review 2: This pint size villain is so incredibly evil, but in such a good way. I'm sure he's not going to enjoy the fact I've called in pint size or evil in a good way. This evil genius is so well written that both adults and MG readers will enjoy reading his books. You don't need to have the desire to want to take over the world or rule the school like Vordak to appreciate his evil, sarcastic charm. There's plenty of laugh out lines, and one liners you'll find yourself wanting to quote, that make this book engaging and fun.Those who have had to deal with Vordak and his somewhat evil ways will enjoy reading this book. You might even say Vordak has been giving the best pay back ever! *evil laugh* Yes, I'm referring to the fact Vordak finds himself in MIDDLE SCHOOL. I know, I laughed so hard my stomach hurt. What? I'm not mean. Given the chance Vordak would do his evil laugh if any one of us were in his position, which I find highly unlikely since the vast majority of us don't play with age-reversing rays. I know what you're thinking, "serves him right". Well this is Vordak we're talking about and of course he's has an evil, cunning back up plan.... TO RULE THE SCHOOL!This isn't just any middle school, it's Farding Middle School. Yes, laugh all you want at that name, but they do have a cool mascot, the Farding Ferrett (you can stop laughing now). It's humor like this, that make these books so appealing to readers, especially boys. Girls will enjoy this as well, but I think Vordak will interest even the most reluctant young male reader. Vordak's books are funny, full of satire and though he's evil (in a harmless way, well he doesn't think that but he won't read this so I can say that), his books are ones even I enjoy joy and have started reading with my son, who by the way thinks Vordak is funny.Vordak books are ones I highly recommend, especially for school reading programs for kids who aren't fond of reading. These books are clean cut, really funny, and they're written in a really engaging way. Vordak's writing will make readers feel like he's addressing them in person. His books aren't just a story, but they will make readers feel like they're part of his plan and there to listen to him. I like that unique approach to reading. To parents and teachers, Vordak's evil is harmless, just don't tell him I said that. He's crafty, well development and down right hilarious. This is a book I can see parent's enjoying as much, if not more than their kids.If you're one who likes a little evil genesis with a sense of humor, than I recommend going out and picking up Vordak's books. I'm really looking forward to reading more of his books. I think Vordak's next plan to should be to take over the book world. Who doesn't want to read more of his books? In order for him to take over the book world, he'd have to publish quite a few more books. I wonder if he's up for the challenge..... *evil laugh* less
