Here’s a look at the paperback version of Dead 2 Rites, the sequel to Jake and the Dynamo. As you can see in this picture, it is quite a thick book:

In fact, it comes to 514 pages. As should be clear from this comparison, it is considerably thicker than the first volume:

The text has the same luxurious formatting as book one, designed to be similar to a professional hardcover:

Like the first book, this one includes full-color illustrations from Roffles Lowell:

Unfortunately, even though we worked to make sure the illustrations would look better in this printing, some of them have come out too dark. I’m not sure of the reason for this.

Have you wanted to hold Jake and the Dynamo: The Wattage of Justice the way I held your mom last night?

Well, now you can!

… Except that’s kind of weird.

But in any case, Jake and the Dynamo is now available in a physical copy!

GET IT HERE

Jake Blatowski can’t wait for high school: basketball, calculus, and a cafeteria that isn’t under investigation by the health department.

Well, he’s going to have to wait: a computer malfunction has assigned him to the fifth grade.

It’s bad enough that he bangs his knees on the desks or that Miss Percy is going over long division … again … but Jake’s sitting next to Dana Volt. She’s a perpetually surly troublemaker who doesn’t even have to exert herself to make his life a living hell.

But no, it gets better: Dana secretly belongs to a coalition of girls protecting humanity from the horde of deadly monsters that plagues the city. But Jake’s no hero; he just wants to get to varsity tryouts!

When the monsters choose a new target, Jake’s not at all surprised that the target is him. Sure, why not? That’s the kind of week he’s having.

Now the impulsive and moody Dana is the only one who can save Jake from certain death—but Jake is the only one who can save Dana from herself.
