"The author's writing is as fluid and teen-smart as ever.... [Lubar] deftly juggles the ensemble of five funny, thoughtful, distinct boys." --School Library Journal "Lubar's trademark blend of humor and suspense, complete with explosions, supernatural powers, and just enough gore, will be a hit. The book may be an entertaining sequel, but it also stands nicely on its own." --Booklist "The short chapters, the challenging concepts, the fine, suspenseful writing will keep readers on edge." --KLIATT, Starred Review "[A] gripping page-turner, with a flawlessly structured plot and compelling, struggling characters who never let each other down." --VOYA "...an intriguing and socially conscious novel that addresses questions about exploitation, friendship, and taking a stand for what is right, no matter what the cost." --Children's Literature "You don't have to read Hidden Talents to enjoy True Talents--no matter which one you start with, you won't rest until you've read the other." --Orson Scott Card
