Rating: Summary: Deformed detectives i a futuristic action book Review: Imagine it was your first time out of your own home. Imagine you were let out to go exploring to get badges, and then, just like that, you were kidnapped. Wouldn't that be the most frightening, the most terrible thing that could ever happen to you, but unfortunatly that is what happened to General Matsika's three kids, and now it is up to the Ear the Eye and the Arm ot find them. I thought that The Ear The Eye And The Arm was a really exciting action-packed book. It kep tme wanting t know what happened next, and where the kids would end up. I also liked the crazy characters and how each one's personality was described. For instance blue monkeys: " genetically engineered creatures that can talk, that have the structure of a monkey with genes spliced from pit bulls and mean rotten humans". The thing that I did not like about the book was that at some points it went on with parts that were not exciting to me. The parts that I found boring was when there was not alot of interaction with the characters.

In fear that the masks-the only gang left-will get a hold of them he calls in the mysterious detectives Ear,Eye, and Erm each of them has there own powers.
