The Mysterious Benedict Society, a group of five friends who have completed tons of dangerous missions together, thought they defeated the villainous Ten Men. Most of them have been locked in the Citadel in Brig City, and their evil leader Mr.Curtain has been trapped inside a specially designed security suite on an island. A few years have passed since they defeated the villains. But there were two Ten Men who weren't captured, and they have freed all their associates. Now, they are on the loose in Stonetown, and they' re planning on freeing Mr.Curtain....and also take revenge on the Mysterious Benedict Society. Soon, they find that the Ten Men have a telepath, who could be able to track down their location. To save the world, the Mysterious Benedict Society will have to meet up again, along with their new friend Tai. The Mysterious Benedict Society has its own telepath, and they've battled the Ten Men before, but will they succeed this time? This book was sometimes a bit boring, and I liked the first book better, but it was a pretty good book. You should read it if you like books with lots of action.

๐๐ this is like the best book series ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please read this s series it is the like best best best!!
Mm, this book is pretty okay I guess... It is different than the first trio of books . I could not really keep up with it. My friend loves it, but I am not certain. Everyone is so different, Tai Li randomly shows up, and devastatingly, CONSTANCE CONTRAIRE PRACTICALLY GAVE UP RHYMING SPONTANEOUSLY!๐ค๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ช๐ฅ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ Also, the plot is hard to follow and I was sad since Violet Hopefield didn't show up in the book. Some parts are good, like when Constance yelled at Reynie and everyone. That was good. I wish I could do that to my sort of friend, who loves this book. But overall, the plot is less clever, TLS has lost a bit of his usual sparkle, and why on earth does Constance not make any epic poems? I loved those! Overall, there are clever plot turns but I couldn't keep up with it. It's like a tidal wave of new characters knocked me over. I do like how the author included each character's personal thoughts, but Tai seems like a minor character. 3 1/2 stars.๐
It was different from the first three books. Reynie, Sticky, Kate, and Constance are all much older. With the appearance of a new member and the rise of more ten men, they are forced to travel to where it all started- the institute. They change over those years. Sticky wants to be called George, Kate abandoned her bucket, and Constance is different than before. It wasn't the amazing book I expected it to be and I think TLS lost his writing style a bit, It dosent pull you in as much anymore. But overall it was OK.
I read this all the time.
It's okay. if I had to read this I would refuse in tragedy. But it is ok to me. people who love it for example bradyc15 said it looks like a good book. Plus ray ray said I think it looks cool. That is why I don't like it. Sorry if I wasted your time.
