Book Review: Spy X Family Vol. 11 by Tatsuya Endo

Spy X Family Volume 11 by Tatsuya Endo

Anya's class is supposed to go on a field trip but the situation takes a frightening turn. Terrorists take over the two school busses. The baddies are from the organization Red Circus and want some of their compatriots freed from jail. To prove how serious they are, they strap a bomb around Anya's neck. With Anya's mind-reading ability, she discovers that the bomb is a fake meant to scare the kids into submission. Her bus gets cornered by the local police, leading to a hostage stand-off.

This issue had more drama than comedy, though plenty of comedic moments pop up. Loid and Yor have only very minor roles in the story, this is Anya's opportunity to shine. Can she defuse the situation and make progress on befriending Damian Desmond? The story is fun and exciting, leaving me wanting more (though the situation is resolved by the end of this book).

Recommended.
