Once again, Max Darwin comes to the aid of Barton, commander of the Battle Bugs, as they face the reptilian forces of General Komodo, a monitor lizard. Jack Patton’s “Battle Bugs: The Spider Siege” continues Max’s involvement with the inhabitants of Bug Island and their ongoing war with the Reptilian Empire. Since it combines bugs and armies in one story, this book may hold particular appeal for boys.Max Darwin loves bugs. His prized possession “The Complete Encyclopedia of Arthropods” has magical properties – the magnifying glass it contains transports Max to Bug Island. Although Max had been unable to return to Bug Island, while looking up a spider he spotted during a camping trip with his parents he feels the preliminary tingling that means he is about to be transported. Back on Bug Island, Max encounters a menacing snake, hidden in the trees, that attacks him. Saved by the Battle Bugs, Max goes to their camp where he learns reptiles are mysteriously appearing on Bug Island. The Battle Bugs need Max’s assistance in learning how the reptiles are entering their Island and in defeating them in battle.“Battle Bugs: The Spider Siege” has well developed characters, likeable bugs and villainous reptiles. Imbuing the bugs with human personalities, yet allowing them to remain “buggy” results in some humorous situations and conversations. Clever wordplay, for instance the chameleon spies named “Cloak and Dagger”, provides additional amusement. The battle scenes are exciting and suspenseful – young readers and listeners immerse themselves in the action on Bug Island.Jack Patton slips interesting, educational facts and observations into the text so subtly that they become part of the story and a reader learns something without knowing their knowledge is increasing.
