The Blurb On The Back:
The Amazon is burning. Fire-breathing creatures run amok through the trees and The Renegades must unite with indigenous activists to stop them
Protecting the climate are Professor Katelyn, who is haunted by sinister visions …
What do these new visions mean?
… Leon, whose stealthy spying skills have risen to the next level …
I’m going to find out where these creatures come from …
… And Mo, who can blast solar energy from his fingertips.
I hope I can protect my friends from danger.
CAN THEY STOP THE LATEST THREAT TO EARTH?
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
Jeremy Brown, Katy Jakeway, Eleanor Mererid, Libby Reed and David Shelby’s environmentally themed superhero graphic novel for children aged 9+ (the second in a series) is a worthy but dull read. The characters are under-developed, the themes treated like anvils and the storyline too predictable. Also the artwork is blocky and I confused Alma and Katelyn at times while the action was difficult to follow such that I won’t be reading on.
THE RENEGADES DEFENDERS OF THE PLANET VOLUME 2 - FLAMES OF AMAZONIA was released in the United Kingdom on 6th May 2021. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.
