Evil Genius by Catherine Jinks

How about a curriculum that lists contagion, mutatation, pure evil, loopholes, misinformation,and embezzlement as courses. Then there is Thaddeus Roth as the professor who teaches basic lying. The young evil genius of the title is Cadel Pigott ,he has a brain beyond belief and loves nothing better to than disrupt city services with such novelties as a bomb threat. The plot whips along filled with action and suspense filled moments. The character of Cadel is not as real as Phin in Amphibian. I found the book filled with funny lines and ideas and generally off the wall. I think it will be popular due to its breakneck pace and fantasy plot lines.
