Never Become a Secret Agent
Norwegian title: Ikke bli en hemmelig agent
The clumsy wizard Einar Andersen is back but this time as a secret agent. Once again, he’s living out a lifelong dream. And once again, he wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
In Never Become a Secret Agent, Einar stumbles through the challenges of going undercover at his old school while trying to keep his identity hidden, deal with new (and far too attractive) magic users, and figure out what everyone else seems to be hiding from him.
This is the second book in Mats Eldøen’s hilarious fantasy series about how awkward it can be to be twelve and how getting everything you’ve ever wished for isn’t always what it seems. Even with magic, you still have to navigate crushes, jealousy and privileged jerks.
