Alex Falase-Koya  

Waterstones Says

The first book in a rip-roaring new series about an unlikely superhero finds science-loving Marvin forced to don his costume to defeat supervillain Mastermind and her giant robot.

Marvin is an ordinary boy who loves spending time with Grandpa, reading comics, and making science experiments with his best friend Joe. But everything changes when he discovers a mysterious superhero suit hidden in the attic... to his amazement, Marvin learns that he is next in a long line of superheroes. Now the time has come to meet his destiny!

When the Science Fair is thrown into chaos by super-villain Mastermind and her giant robot, Marvin is the only one who can stop them. Will Marvin be brave enough to step into his power-and into his superhero suit-to become the great and marvellous superhero Marv?

The first book in a powerful series of one boy's journey to unlock the superhero within.
