Max Werner is bored with stealing. His perfect night vision just makes it far too easy these days. What he needs is one big heist before summer ends and he has to go back to school. Or, at least, that’s what he thinks until his little sister Jenny begins to blackmail him. He can either bring her along to steal, or she will report his crimes to the police.
Jenny and Max get far more excitement than they hoped for, however, when a group of inhuman subterranean criminals kidnap Jenny to punish Max for invading their territory. Desperate and scared, Max must journey underground to save his sister with nothing but his ability to see in the dark and a few courageous friends to keep him alive.
A SELECTIVE HISTORY OF MAX WERNER is a funny and exciting young adult adventure that sheds light onto the unique world of a fifteen-year-old who can see in the dark.

A very quick read, the story is interesting and the whole thing is very well-written. I've described it to friends as a mix between Douglas Adams's humor and Neil Gaiman's imagination. Had me laughing out loud several times (the footnotes are genius), and it's educational in that it taught me two new words (which I thought were typos, until I looked them up). The pacing is fantastic and it's a great read for both kids and adults.Product details

A Selective History of Max Werner edition by Scott Forbes Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Well. It wasn't terrible.
I have this thing where when I really dislike a book, it makes me a bit queasy. (Weird, right?) But, anyway, after finishing Max Werner, I had a really bad stomach ache.
I don't really know exactly why I disliked this book. I just couldn't get into the story. I found it absolutely, mind-numbingly boring. And none of the main characters were really people I wanted to cheer for. I hated Max, I hated his sister--I disliked all of them, though I disliked Tom the least. And the goblins! I don't enjoy goblins I guess, because this is the second book I have read about them, and I didn't like the other one either. They were disgusting creatures. I didn't even like them as the antagonists, which says a lot.
The writing was rather mediocre for me. When I read a book, I want to be completely and totally immersed in it--not checking every two minutes to see how many pages are left, which is exactly what I was doing when I was reading this.
The worst part is, this is a book that I should like. I love books about thieves, and the blurb reminded me so much of Artemis Fowl that I couldn't wait to read this book. I was really disappointed when I started reading, though.
However, people may have a different opinion than me. If you want to read this for whatever reason, do it, because I was in the minority on this one--everybody else seemed to at least slightly enjoy this book. Maybe you'll like it. Goodness know I didn't.
A very quick read, the story is interesting and the whole thing is very well-written. I've described it to friends as a mix between Douglas Adams's humor and Neil Gaiman's imagination. Had me laughing out loud several times (the footnotes are genius), and it's educational in that it taught me two new words (which I thought were typos, until I looked them up). The pacing is fantastic and it's a great read for both kids and adults.
