OverviewGrowing Up in a Superhero Family is Cool, Unless You're Powerless ... **Gold Medal Winner - Readers' Favorite Book Awards** *****Over 11,000 five-star reviews for the Epic Zero series on Amazon and Goodreads! All Elliott Harkness wants is to be a superhero. His parents are superheroes. His older sister is a superhero. Heck, even his dog is a superhero. But Elliott has a problem--he's a ""Zero""--which is super-speak for powerless! So, while his family is off fighting crime, Elliott is stuck muddling through middle school. Elliott feels ever-so-ordinary, until a mysterious girl changes everything. For some reason, she believes Elliott is the only one who can capture a mega-powerful, extraterrestrial orb before it falls into the wrong hands. But with menacing supervillains and globe-conquering aliens closing in fast, will Elliott find the power to be the epic hero he's always wanted to be--or will he always be just an Epic Zero?

Ullman, and I have to say, I loved it! I knew this was a great children's/young adult book when my 11-year-old son kept trying to read it over my shoulder. The writing is perfect for kids, the pace is brisk, and the storyline is exciting. I loved Elliott, the main character, and his strong desire to be a hero. I loved the message of the book, that sometimes even those who don't appear to be special on the surface may have deep talent that just needs to be discovered. I loved the illustrations that start each chapter; I just plain loved this book. This is a delightful read for children and tweens, even for children like my son who don't always enjoy reading.

Reviewed by Jack Magnus for Readers' Favorite. With Epic Zero, Ullman reminds me of why I used to love superheroes. Epic Zero is the first book in a soon to be young adult series.
