Alcatraz versus the evil Librarians is a wierd one. A really really weird one. This is Brandon Sandersons foray into young adult stuff and of course its fantasy. I can very boldly say i have never seen any thing like this. Im so sure this book must have had polarized reviews upon release. Love it or Hate it.
Alcatraz Smedry is the protagonist of this book. He's a young orphan boy who just always happens to be around when accidents happens. Turns out he's from a superhero family and he has the power to...break things accidentally. He is rescued from possible death by his granfather who appears out of nowhere and tells him he has powers. The world has been taken over by evil librarians who then keep the people ignorant. I can hear the eyerolls but gosh is it ever so fun.
The book is wacky and zany yes but it does get pretty dark. Character development is great. I can see how this would be a good read for older kids. Can't give any more details without spoiling it. Enjoy!
