Review: If you are looking for a quick easy novel, Batman, The Revenge Of Clayface, written by Eric Stevens, is for you! In Gotham City, a new weapon is being developed when an evil villain wants to steal it right out of Bruce Wayne's hands and send it to a black market. If you like other DC Super Heroes, then this story about Batman will amuse you. Batman chases down criminals as Clayface plots his devious scheme. If you aren't familiar with these enemies the book includes a short glossary of some of the characters in the back of the book.

I enjoyed this book even though it is short. It has colorful illustrations; and I like that it has a brief summary of information as a source for the characters in the back. It is a quick read and is interesting. The action and suspense of what happens next keeps you turning to the next page. It reminded me of some of my most favorite villains in previous Batman books. The only thing I didn't like about the book is that it is written for a younger audience with a lower level vocabulary. I would love to read a similar book for older readers. But, for the intended audience of younger readers, Batman, the Revenge of Clayface is an amazing book.
