Well, let's hope the story is better than the cover then. You know the old saying... ;)

OK--that is just an AWFUL job with Photoshop

Agreed.  It just looks weird having Frank and Joe standing in shorts and T-Shirts in front of a forest that seems to be covered in fog.   It makes it look like the story takes place in the late-fall/early-spring, and yet Frank and Joe are ready for a day at the beach in the middle of July.

The book is actually called "The Children of the Lost" and it's the first book in "The Lost Mystery Trilogy"- sounds pretty cool. :)

Actually I think the actually book title is Children Of The Lost, since if you notice what is on the cover of the book there is no "The".

Where's the "the"? ;D
Okay- guess it's just "Children of the Lost". I think that sounds a bit better anyway.

It'll just be a matter of time to see if the story lives up to the title.

Personally, I think it sounds better with the "the". Doesn't make that much of a difference, though.

Casefiles are my favorite but if I wanted to get into one of these new ones...do you have a suggestion as to which one would hook me in the most?
I'm not on here as much or I just come on for a few moments. So I trying to keep up with posts. Sorry for being MIA. I've been off on a mission with Frank and Joe! :)

I'm willing to bet that this so called book is probably along the same plot-line as Operation Survival was.... That is the kind of conservative, smart thing that S&S would do.

I'd recommend you skip the UB altogether. But if you really want to read them, try the first one, Extreme Danger, or Wanted.

The best series in the Undercover Brothers continuity is Scott Lobdell's graphic novel series, though.

None? :( Are you saying I should just skip the UBs altogether?

Yes, that's what I'm saying. 

But I have to agree with SDLagent: Scott Lobdell's graphic novels are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the regular UB's.

The final book in the Lost Trilogy is to be entitled Forever Lost and will be published in January 2011. Ironic for a series that has definitely "lost it's way".

It's kinda disappointing that the books are coming out every four months instead of every other.
