Max and the Midknights: Battle of the Bodkins is the second book in the series, this time with evil doppelgangers, even more magic, and tons of humor. This book is definitely one of my favorite books, because this book checks off all the good qualities a good book should have- action, humor, friendships, romance, and mystery! Another reason that I love this book so much is that it also incorporates little illustrations throughout the book, and even changes to a comic sometimes! This book is definitely a must read for people who enjoy action, comics, or mystery.
The scene of the tale is set in the Middle Ages and based on a girl named Max and her friends, the Midknights. Max is very determined to become a knight and embark on great adventures. But, her homeland, Byjovia, is soon under attack by creatures that can transform into any citizen in Byjovia! These creatures are known as bodkins! In order to protect Byjovia and defeat the bodkins, Max and the Midnights must travel to the creatures’ homeland and prevent the bodkins from traveling to Byjovia.
