Masters of Disguise (The Forgotten Five, Book 6)

By: Lisa McMann

Narrated by: Jeremy Carlisle Parker

X-Men meets Spy Kids in the sixth installment of The Forgotten Five middle-grade fantasy/adventure series by the New York Times bestselling author of The Unwanteds.

Only weeks remain before the election that will decide the fate of supernaturals in Estero, with presidential challenger Magdalia Palacio in the lead. Desperate to maintain his grip on power, corrupt President Fuerte has leaked photos of the forgotten five to the press, making the kids public enemy number one. And now the location of their safe house has been discovered, and the five and their friends are on the run.

With their identities revealed to the world, the kids must master the art of disguise to move freely about Estero, including infiltrating an upcoming Fuerte campaign event at the Estero City Zoo. But the other side is willing to play dirty, so the five will have to be ready for anything.

Meanwhile, Cabot’s parents, who have been acting as double agents for years, dare to cross the president and are arrested, leaving them unable to share critical information: Fuerte has a new super on his team with the power to change the course of the election—and no one will see it coming until it is too late.

Beautiful Storyline

IT WAS INCREDIBLE!!! I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE! Definitely for readers of all ages 8 and up, but really if you sugarcoat some of the battles it's all ages. I started when I was 10 and now I'm 12 and I still love them all. A book I would gladly come back to if I ever get bored. The narrator was excellent, and the story was easy to follow and I couldn't stop listening once I started.

Good

It was good and I though it had a lot of depth. The reader had good voices and the story was good.

Aviars!

The only thing that I dislike is that there weren’t 12 more hours of listening left!! It was so good.

AMAZIMG BOOK

I love the Forgotten five series so much. this 6th book has made me love it even more

Have the characters had lobotomies?

The story tempo, writing and character consistency has declined rapidly for the past two books. I wish she would take her time instead of rushing to get a book out every year and subjecting us to increasing filler. We’ve loyally followed every new release, but I think we’re done after this one. We adore several character transformations but it’s not enough to save the series. The dialogue has deteriorated while being inconsistent with the ages and personalities of the kids.
The obvious socio-political angles also wears after so long.
Voice actor was fantastic as usual.
