I actually avoided reading the Zita the Spacegirl books for a long time because I didn’t think it would be possible for Ben Hatke to catch lightning in a bottle twice. I thought the fracturing of Jack and the beanstalk was creative and well done. I first got into this series by reading Mighty Jack.
