12-year-old Max Duncan becomes the most powerful boy in the world when he gains the power to absorb the abilities and physical characteristics of any animal he touches. Lost and separated from his family during a vacation in the dense Amazon jungle, Max is chosen by the Earth Spirits as the latest in a long lineage of planetary defenders. Entrusted with a mystical artifact known as the Animus Stone, Max gains the power to absorb the abilities of any animal he touches and transform himself into a human-animal hybrid for seven minutes at a time. Taking on the attributes of lizards, lions, tigers, elephants, spiders, dolphins, and more - sometimes the transformations are gross, weird and bizarre – Max has a power no one else in the world seems to have. Joined by his faithful friends, Chris and Jenny, the three young heroes gradually find a way to use Max’s abilities to protect the planet and all its many creatures.

It was a good book. It was about a kid that has a magic pearl. The pearl lets him get an animal's abilities when touches an animal. He saves the abilities so he only has to touch an animal once. He can only change three times a day for five minutes. I don't want to give away any secrets from the book but he uses his powers to save people.

I would recommend this book to kids ages 6-9 who enjoy mystery and action books.

I didn't know what to expect

It's the first issue, so it can go many different ways. I like the premise, so if the play their cards correctly the story should be pretty good. Looking forward to future issues.

Ok

Nice beginning and storyline
It wasn't perfect but it was okay
Should improve more and make it longer and explain the story more in a detailed way

Young adult fiction.

Designed for tween s Will be an energetic series in time. Sort of a derivative or homage to beast boy of dc fame.
