Gr 3-6–In this series conclusion, young Diana finds herself on an unknown planet, unsure of how she arrived there. She is trying to rescue her friends, children with special abilities who have been kidnapped. She is racing against time to rescue them before the evil Zumius can fulfill his plan of stealing their powers and using them to make himself unstoppable. This book jumps right into the action; familiarity with the first two installments is a must. Kids who love Wonder Woman will enjoy seeing her life as a tween. They will identify with her trying to figure problems out and do the right thing, but still making mistakes along the way. The story line can be hard to follow, starting with waking up on an unknown planet then jumping to the human world without much explanation as to how these things happened.
VERDICT Add where there are other books in the series. Kids who generally enjoy superhero books or love Wonder Woman will probably enjoy this title, but it won’t earn any new fans.
