Cadel Piggott has had a hard time lately. He's living with a
teenaged thug. He doesn't know where he was born. He doesn't know
who his father is. All he knows is that he's under constant threat
from Prosper English - the criminal mastermind he helped to put in
gaol.
And now Cadel must decide whether to throw in his lot with a team
of specialists dedicated to bringing down a corrupt corporation.
Will Genius Squad be the answer to all his prayers? Or is he right
to feel suspicious of its motives?

Voldemort, and you have some idea.' - Jane Sullivan, the
Age
'Really smart and clever.' - Philadelphia Inquirer
'This hefty but engrossingly complex tale features a young
super-brain being groomed for world domination . . . Cadel rides
right up there with Artemis Fowl as a sympathetic anti-villain.' -
