Mike Speed was no ordinary boy. He had a talent. He was fast. Very
fast. But even that might not be enough for him to pass the
gruelling tasks in his first year at Wimford Academy, the finest
hero school in the land. His new friends in Bronze Dormitory had
special gifts too, although some of these did not appear to be very
useful, it has to be said. When would you actually need a slow
motion man to help you? Or a girl who turned to rust in the rain?
And together, would they be able to stop Vaughn, the tiny little
megalomaniac who wants to RULE THE WORLD! The first of the Mike
Speed adventures begins here.
