Evil Genius

EVIL GENIUS is Harry Potter in reverse. Our hero is not a nice kid and causes much mischief. His adoptive parents are not interested in him. And his real father is not dead, but instead is the most evil man on the planet. The story builds a little slowly and then begins plowing through characters and situations with reckless abandon. It is an interesting enough read and I am curious to see where the second book goes. In fact, I bought the second book first thinking it was the first of the series. But I won't be getting to it anytime soon, because school reading begins again.
