Korman is great read for kids - and I really enjoyed his books even as an adult.

the only thing I would prefer is that the books were sold in sets or instead of small series books have them all combined in one larger book - because it's difficult to find all the books in a series.

It's awful to invest time in a book where you don't get to find out what happens next. So get all the books before you start reading them or give them to your kids because each book is a continuation of the last and you have to read them in order.

These books are very good. I purchased them while teaching a reading course for 7th and 8th graders and I was very interested in the plot and characters--especially as they are written for the 11-15 year old crowd! They remind me of the Lost series on TV, so the plot isn't exactly new, but kids will love them.
