The second entry in an all-new, mesmerizing adventure from the masterful, #1 NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Gordon Korman!

Jax Opus knows he's not like other kids. And it isn't his skill on the basketball court or his test scores that set him apart. No, Jax is different because he can hypnotize people. In fact, he might be the best hypnotist the world has seen in a very long time.You would think Jax would be happy about this. But really? It's ruining his life. He and his family are hiding from a master hypnotist who wants Jax out of the picture . . . forever. And the FBI is also starting to ask questions about Jax and his abilities. Jax thinks life might be getting a little better when a very rich, very powerful man asks him to help out with something. The reward will be great. And the price — well, the price is that Jax starts taking on the man's memories. And some of them are pretty deadly.#1 NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Gordon Korman keeps the thrills coming and the adventure nonstop as the past and the present collide to build a memory maze that Jax Opus may never escape. . .

      Gr 3-7-In this second installment featuring middle school hypnotist Jackson Opus (after The Hypnotists), Jax, his parents, and mentor Axel Braintree are all forced into hiding due to an evil expert hypnotist who has nefarious plans for Jax's talents. Ramon de Ocampo returns as narrator, his realistic vocal rendering capably conveying the conflicted hero. He fluctuates his pitch to match Jax's moods from worried to furious to grieving, sounding exactly like any 12 year old going through puberty, and de Ocampo's voice for Axel has just enough of a cartoony vibe to match his character but not enough to seem unbelievable. He also deftly handles the crackly voice of a 96-year-old eccentric billionaire desperate for Jax's hypnotic assistance. Listeners will quickly be drawn into Korman's tale as de Ocampo smoothly moves the action along, transitioning from voice to voice and chapter to chapter, without any awkward pauses or disruptions in flow. The story ends with a bang, leaving listeners eager to find out what is next for Jax.-Shari Fesko, Southfield Public Library, MI
