Publisher's summary

Newbery Medalist Avi explores the American Revolution from a fresh perspective in the story of a young Loyalist turned British spy navigating patriotism and personal responsibility during the lead-up to the War of Independence.

When his father is killed by rebel vigilantes, Noah flees with his family to Boston. Intent on avenging his father, Noah becomes a spy for the British and firsthand witness to the power of partisan rumor to distort facts, the hypocrisy of men who demand freedom while enslaving others, and the human connections that bind people together regardless of stated allegiances.

Awash in contradictory information and participating in key events leading to the American Revolution, Noah must forge his own understanding of right and wrong and determine for himself where his loyalty truly lies.

Slow and boring.

This is my third AVI book, and my least favorite. I listened to it as a potential book to read aloud to my 5th grade class while we are studying the Revolutionary War. I was bored for so much of the book that I had a hard time even finishing it. I would never read it to a group of average 5th graders.

I might have enjoyed this book more reading it myself, but as an audiobook it just felt so slow (even dubbed as fast as was still comprehensible), redundant, and lacking in excitement.

I would recommend this only to my very high readers who could fly through the repetitive, overly detailed journal-entry style of writing and really understand and appreciate the journey Noah goes on and the true hero of the story — Jolla.

Good

I like that this book gave a different view from the one we are normally told in school. I read this book for a college course and I have to say I enjoyed reading it. It was very interesting and it had a good message. Noah and Jolla ❤️

One of Avi’s best!

If you want to be transported back in time in technicolor to the time of the American Revolution — this book brought it to life. Avi never ceases to amaze…

Dissatisfied

Narrator has a silly, exaggerated accent/delivery and recording cuts out, so the reader misses a few words every paragraph.
