Maybe nothing. Or maybe everything. It's a mystery...some would say a code. A code that only an adept code-cracker like Blue Avenger (aka David Schumacher), secret champion of the underdog, modest seeker of truth, and fearless innovator of the unknown, would even think about trying to decipher. And it couldn't come at a better time. Having accomplished several seemingly impossible missions, Blue is now a superhero without a cause, directionless and nearly girlfriendless. When he is offered a chance to visit Venice, it seems the forces of nature have aligned, and like all good and noble superheroes, Blue must choose to accept his mission.

Norma Howe has written six novels for young adults, including The Adventures of Blue Avenger and Blue Avenger Cracks the Code. The San Francisco Chronicle writes that "Ms. Howe creates rare heroes -- exceptional people who happen to be in their teens." To research this book, Ms. Howe traveled to England and Venice numerous times. She lives with her husband in Sacramento, California.

Persuaded by his English teacher that the author of the plays attributed to Shakespeare is someone else, Blue quickly sets to work decoding Elizabethan anagrams and ciphers. PW called this "less philosophical than The Adventures of Blue Avenger, but just as eccentric and intellectually engaging." Ages 13-up.
