This book is an excellent companion to the Smallville series. We as an entire family enjoy the series very much. We also enjoy spending time reading. This book is excellent when it comes to sticking to the plot of the series. I highly recommend it for reading.

If you're very into the show - seen every episode and can't get enough - Smallville: See No Evil will satisfly that need. It is an easy read, competently written, with suspense and interesting drama evenly paced throughout, and plotted much like a TV episode, with each major character figuring into the story. If you haven't seen the show, this might seem like just another juvenile novel, and not stand alone perfectly (that's the only reason I only gave it four stars), but even if you've just seen a few episodes you'll get interested in the book instantly.
It all commences when Lana asks Clark to help out with the high school play of Cyrano de Bergerac. The female lead of the play, Dawn Mills, is a stuck up snob like those in the film Mean Girls. She discovers she can turn herself invisible with meteor rock - possibly in combination with some of her cosmetics. Invisible she learns what people really think of her, and begins a campaign of revenge, starting with her boyfriend, taking him out of the play. The result of this is that Clark Kent gets the lead role of Cyrano - he's the only one who knows the lines already - and Dawn has designs on him now, romantic at first . . .
The reading level is appropriate for ages 10 - 14. Some of the content may not be appropriate for 10-12 year-olds, but is no worse than some episodes of the TV show. I'm referring to relatively mild language like "P.O.ed," the "A" word, and a scene in which the bad girl secretly watched Clark naked after his shower and "ogled" him. When I was that age, these would have caused concern in a book, though even then some PG movies were worse.

When Lana Lang, Clark Kent's all-time love (even though she doesn't know it), asks him for help with the school play, he says yes in a heartbeat. Which is how he meets Dawn, a stuck-up, rich, phony, who has her heart set on attending Juilliard. Clark also meets Dawn's boyfriend, Mike, a fellow actor, who seems fed-up with his so-called loving girlfriend. So when a bunch of freak accidents keep happening to cast members of the school play, leaving Clark with the lead role, it appears that someone is taking this whole acting thing one step too far, and it's up to Clark, Pete, Lana, and Chloe to find out who it is, before someone ends up worse than hurt, and more like dead.
Cherie Bennett and Jeff Gottesfeld did a fantastic job with SEE NO EVIL. The characters are written in such a fantastic way, that you can actually hear them saying their lines as you're reading. WARNING: This is a VERY short book, so if you're a fan of SMALLVILLE, I'd consider keeping a few more installments of this series at hand, as you will be craving more of Clark Kent and the gang when you're finished.

The author of this book is cherie bennet. the book was published by Little Brown and Company in 2002 and the title is Smallville see no evil.
THE BOOK WITH A LITTLE SECRET See No Evil is a fabulous tie-in novel to the hit television series Smallville. The authors do a really great job of capturing the way that Clark, Lana, Pete, Chloe, and the whole group speaks. Dawn a really cocky person that wants to go to broadway and has the potential to do so has a secret, she can be invisible. Clark gets caught in the mixup between Dawn and her boyfriend Mike, that has the potential to go on Broadway as well, and it is not pretty. Dawn gets bored of mike and beats him up brutially I mean it had to hurt ( while she was invisible I might add ). Mike is sent to the hospital and has a broken leg. Clark got bored one night while he was at home after finishing his schoolwork and memorized the whole play in like one night (probably because of his superpowers). So when Clark found out that Mike broke his leg Clark was Volunteered by Pete and Chloe. Clark had a little problem with stage fright though and he forgot to mention it I guess and he got stuck with the job. So he went from flunky to Cyrano the most important part in the play. The only reason that he was even there was that lana was on the stage crew and now he is the leading role in Cyrano he is Cyrano. Clarks friend Lex Luthor Donated a huge lighting board for the school play Cyrano But still everyone knows that the only reason that lex donated the lighting board was because it was his favorite play and Clark was in it. When Clark found out he was disappointed because of his stage fright he couldn't do any thing he just really stuttered the lines out and barely got through the rehearsal He thought that Lex deserved better after donating the very expensive lighting board. Clark had saved lex's life on many occasions though so he didn't feel all that bad. Lex's favorite play was Cyrano so Lex gave him a few pointers on what he should be like and that helped him out a good bit. One day Clark was in his loft and Dawn hit a horse (again while she was invisible) the horse didn't like that very much so it went tramping around and almost smashed Lana but Clark ran superspeed and saved her. That all ended out in a good manner. Chloe the publisher of the torch (the school newspaper) finds out how weird it was that mikes knees buckled like he was hit. Clark thought it was weird too. They all find out about her and its only another addition to the wall of weird which is all of the weird that happen in smallville just so you know there from the meteor shower that hi in Smallville when Clark was transferred from Krypton and to earth. I shouldn't really tell the rest in detail because i dont want to give away the ending but out of alot books that is one of my favorites.
