Description
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. . .

        June 15, 2014
        A new identity can't keep Jackson Opus and his parents out of harm's way.After refusing to help Elias Mako and his Sentia Institute mesmerists rig an election in The Hypnotists (2013), Jax and his parents move from New York City to Haywood, Connecticut, and change their name from Opus to Magnus. They are in hiding from Mako and his young thugs with the help of Axel Braintree, head of the Sandman's Guild (a kind of 12-step group for hypnotists to keep them on the straight and narrow). But it's hard for Jax to keep his head down when his color-changing gaze and an offhand comment can send anyone into a mind-controlled trance. When dying media tycoon Avery Quackenbush, who's on to Jax's identity, approaches the middle schooler with an offer he can't refuse, Jax takes on the task of hypnotizing Quackenbush to extend his life-against Braintree's advice. But if Quackenbush has figured out who Jax is, can Mako and the FBI be far behind? Though it's less hypnotism and more telepathic mind control that acts as a catalyst to the tale, Korman's second light and action-oriented tale about Jax Opus will please fans of the first or his other short suspense trilogies. Though there's not much character depth, and it's a bit slow at times, there are still a couple of surprises. Not Korman's best but good for a summer read. (Suspense fantasy. 9-12)
