Book excerpt: The first seven books in the New York Times bestselling Spy School series by Stuart Gibbs are now available together in a collectible boxed set! Can an undercover nerd become a superstar agent? Ben Ripley sure hopes so—and his life may depend on it! When Ben Ripley is recruited to the CIA’s Academy of Espionage, it’s a dream come true. But as soon as he gets on campus, Ben finds out that Spy School is way more deadly than debonair. And given his total lack of coordination and failure to grasp even the most basic spying skills, Ben begins to wonder what he’s doing here in the first place. Luckily, through a series of hilarious misadventures, Ben realizes he could actually become a halfway decent spy…if he can survive all the attempts being made on his life! Ideal for newcomers to the series and loyal fans alike, this collection includes hardcover editions of Spy School, Spy Camp, Evil Spy School, Spy Ski School, Spy School Secret Service, Spy School Goes South, and Spy School British Invasion.
