"The BlackBelt Club" by Dawn Barnes starts off with Max Greene, a karate student who isn't good, waking up to go to his Dojo to find out from his sensei why he was put into an elite karate class known as the Blackbelt Club. Upon arrival he meets the three other students who were also chosen to be in the BBC and finds out that he has been chosen to stop the Death Master from destroying the world! The Death Master removed the wheels of power from the almighty tree of life. Max and his teammates must join together and find the wheels using their animal powers.

Opinion: 

"The BlackBelt Club" isn't for everyone. Preteens may not like the weird writing style and childish plot. The plot idea is great and it could've been great if he would have made it longer. This could have been done by extending parts of the story and having a little more excitement in the story line. It also would have been better if there wasn't that comic book style art for most of the story. As I said before, it could've been great, but there were just a few thing holding it back.
