Summary
The ninth and latest addition to the New York Times bestselling Spy School series that’s perfect for fans of Chris Grabenstein！ Superspy middle schooler Ben Ripley faces his nemesis， Murray Hill， on the high seas。
Thanks to the evidence Ben uncovered in his investigation of the Croatoan， the CIA has tracked his nemesis， Murray Hill， to Central America， where they believe he is boarding the world’s biggest cruise ship， The Emperor of the Seas， on its maiden voyage around the world。
The CIA and MI6 want to find out what Murray is plotting， but to do that， they need to send in the person who knows Murray Hill the best: Ben Ripley。 Only Ben can’t be sent in alone。 So he’ll be posing as part of a family， with Alexander and Catherine Hale as his parents， Erica as his sister， and his best friend Mike as his brother。
At first， it sounds exciting to have a mission on the most glamorous ocean liner on earth， but as usual， nothing goes according to plan。 There is action， danger， and plenty of surprises as Ben and his team quickly find themselves in hot water。

Thanks to NetGalley， I had the opportunity to read and review this phenomenal new middle grade spy novel from Stuart Gibbs。 If you are a fan of the series， one of the best parts of this particular book is the reappearance of characters from previous books combined with unexpected new characters。 The cruise ship setting leads to humorous and thrilling action sequences throughout the book。 Almost every chapter ends with a cliff hanger and makes it hard to stop reading。 I read this aloud with my 10 Thanks to NetGalley， I had the opportunity to read and review this phenomenal new middle grade spy novel from Stuart Gibbs。 If you are a fan of the series， one of the best parts of this particular book is the reappearance of characters from previous books combined with unexpected new characters。 The cruise ship setting leads to humorous and thrilling action sequences throughout the book。 Almost every chapter ends with a cliff hanger and makes it hard to stop reading。 I read this aloud with my 10-year-old who begged for more every night。 It's also particularly cleverly written and humorous。 We stopped reading to laugh out loud numerous times。 The plot has interesting and engaging twists that leave you wondering what comes next。 If you have never read any of the spy school books， I would recommend starting at the beginning of the series， but if you choose to read this book alone， it is still just as entertaining。 Avast ye mateys - go read Spy School at Sea！ 。。。more

With thanks to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster for an early copy in return for an honest review。Another fun addition to the Spy School series！ It's always fun catching up with the characters and there are several action sequences in the book that will keep kids turning the page。 Some family + friendship + romance + nuclear detonators + cruise buffets makes for an enjoyable story。 With thanks to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster for an early copy in return for an honest review。Another fun addition to the Spy School series！ It's always fun catching up with the characters and there are several action sequences in the book that will keep kids turning the page。 Some family + friendship + romance + nuclear detonators + cruise buffets makes for an enjoyable story。 。。。more

My name is Mike， and I finally get to have a brother I like！ Ben and I are pretending to be part of Erica's family， so we can snoop around a giant cruise ship in Guatemala looking for Murray Hill。 I know Murray was another student at the CIA's spy school for kids， but he's been amassing money while being a traitor to different criminal organizations。 We don't know what evil he's planning now， but Ben knows him better than anyone。 Ben thinks he might have seen Dane Brammage on the ship which woul My name is Mike， and I finally get to have a brother I like！ Ben and I are pretending to be part of Erica's family， so we can snoop around a giant cruise ship in Guatemala looking for Murray Hill。 I know Murray was another student at the CIA's spy school for kids， but he's been amassing money while being a traitor to different criminal organizations。 We don't know what evil he's planning now， but Ben knows him better than anyone。 Ben thinks he might have seen Dane Brammage on the ship which would be terrible since Dane's tried killing Ben on several occasions。 However， Dane fell to his death on our last mission in Paris， didn't he？ Erica will be just as dangerous as Dane if she finds out the secret Ben and I are keeping。 We need to stay focused on Murray though。 Can his plans have anything to do with the cruise ship itself？I received an ARC for this book， and I've enjoyed the whole series since it started。 Ben was the main character with ordinary spy skills， a talent for thinking， and a huge crush on Erica， a super-talented student-spy with a family legacy for spying。 The possibility of Ben and Erica becoming a couple was an ongoing subplot， and this book didn't provide any clarity until the final pages。 Ben and Mike kept a secret from her that created a book-long air of uncertainty that could have popped up into a big problem at any time。 The book was written to entertain， and the zany mission did not disappoint。 Murray was an inept， sloppy villain， there were chase scenes through buffet tables， and characters added snarky comments。 It was a spy adventure modified to appeal to younger readers。 The kids had typical boy/girl issues， the story never became stagnant， and as always， the conflict dealt with a major disaster， saving the world， or political/corporate corruption。 The plot had the same format as earlier books， so the book felt familiar。 However， this familiarity made the book feel less creative or new。 Overall， I'm enjoying the series， and a few things happened at the end of the book that give me hope that the sequel will be a little different。 。。。more

Okay， I’ve got a couple complaints。 Every spy school book I read has to re-tell everything from the past books。 Making us suffer， and it’s not like a couple of things。 It’s pretty much everything。 Spy school revolution was a good book， but I felt it was forced/a cash grab。 Still it was a good book， but Ben Ripley for me is getting really annoying。 He relies on Erica to much， and that torch he carries for her is getting really big and annoying。 He also is very ignorant。 Although I’m still very ex Okay， I’ve got a couple complaints。 Every spy school book I read has to re-tell everything from the past books。 Making us suffer， and it’s not like a couple of things。 It’s pretty much everything。 Spy school revolution was a good book， but I felt it was forced/a cash grab。 Still it was a good book， but Ben Ripley for me is getting really annoying。 He relies on Erica to much， and that torch he carries for her is getting really big and annoying。 He also is very ignorant。 Although I’m still very excited for the upcoming book， and I love the series！ 。。。more

Though I have never read this one （only on preview， duh）I am confident that it will be another great book like the others in Spy School series。After Trixie Hale's fancy debut in Spy School: Revolution （this title makes me think of Hamilton。。。）I was kinda wondering Bixie can be good as much as Berica。。。But， you know， Mixie is good， tooIDK why authors are trying to put new romance ships and love triangles。。。There is a spy school at sea on wattpad by someone called "Swishhhh" and it's pretty good。。 Though I have never read this one （only on preview， duh）I am confident that it will be another great book like the others in Spy School series。After Trixie Hale's fancy debut in Spy School: Revolution （this title makes me think of Hamilton。。。）I was kinda wondering Bixie can be good as much as Berica。。。But， you know， Mixie is good， tooIDK why authors are trying to put new romance ships and love triangles。。。There is a spy school at sea on wattpad by someone called "Swishhhh" and it's pretty good。。。PS if you ship zen， you are wrong。 Zoe is strange。。。 I knew zen was uncomfortable for ben all the time since the beginning！ 。。。more

I really enjoyed this new installment in the Spy School series。 There’s plenty of action， romance， and even a new emotional undertone that sets this book apart from the others in the series。 What I love about this series is how broad it’s audience is。 Young children， teenagers， even adults can enjoy reading these books， which I think is very special。 I would recommend Spy School at Sea to anyone but especially kids/teens and fans of the series。 eARC provided by Simon & Schuster via Edelweiss
