Für Reynie, Kleber, Kate und Constance begannen die Abenteuer mit der Benedict-Gesellschaft. Doch bevor diese Geheimgesellschaft in Aktion trat, gab es nur einen Jungen mit einer außerordentlichen Begabung: Sein Name war Nicholas Benedict und er war Waise. In seinem neuen Waisenhaus begibt er sich auf die Suche nach einem Geheimnis und stößt dabei auf ein weiteres Mysterium, das sein Leben vollkommen verändern wird…

Before there was a Mysterious Benedict Society, there was simply a boy named Nicholas Benedict—now it''s time to meet the boy who started it all. Nine-year-old Nicholas Benedict has more problems than most children his age. Not only is he an orphan with an unfortunate nose, but he also has narcolepsy, a condition that gives him terrible nightmares and makes him fall asleep at the worst possible moments. Now he''s being sent to a new orphanage, where he will encounter vicious bullies, selfish adults, strange circumstances—and a mystery that could change his life forever. Luckily, he has one important thing in his favor: He''s a genius. On his quest to solve the mystery, Nicholas finds enemies around every corner, but also friends in unexpected places—and discovers along the way that the greatest puzzle of all is himself.

In this set of the first three adventures of the NYT bestselling The Mysterious Benedict Society series, join Reynie, Kate, Sticky, and Constance as they embark on their daring missions in The Mysterious Benedict Society, The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Journey, and The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Prisoner''s Dilemma. Filled with page-turning action and mind-bending brain teasers, these wildly inventive journeys are sure to delight.

Grade 5 9 After Reynie Muldoon responds to an advertisement recruiting gifted children looking for special opportunities, he finds himself in a world of mystery and adventure. The 11-year-old orphan is one of four children to complete a series of challenging and creative tasks, and he, Kate, Constance, and Sticky become the Mysterious Benedict Society. After being trained by Mr. Benedict and his assistants, the four travel to an isolated school where children are being trained by a criminal mastermind to participate in his schemes to take over the world. The young investigators need to use their special talents and abilities in order to discover Mr. Curtain''s secrets, and their only chance to defeat him is through working together. Readers will challenge their own abilities as they work with the Society members to solve clues and put together the pieces of Mr. Curtain''s plan. In spite of a variety of coincidences, Stewart''s unusual characters, threatening villains, and dramatic plot twists will grab and hold readers'' attention. Fans of Roald Dahl or Blue Balliett will find a familiar blend of kid power, clues, and adventure in Society, though its length may daunt reluctant or less-secure readers. Underlying themes about the power of media messages and the value of education add to this book''s appeal, and a happy ending with hints of more adventures to come make this first-time author one to remember.
