Also rather ironically for a book based on superheroes, I think the story would have benefitted from being produced as a graphic novel or written as a cartoon over being written as a novel. Her descriptive skills are solid enough that I could easily visualise what was going on.

I love everything about this story. There is a lot of complex and compelling characters, which look at the concept of good and evil and what really makes someone a hero or villain. It is a hard topic to approach as everyone is different and the world is not always black and white as is often given to us in books and media in general. There is so much to this world and it is a breath of fresh air compared to the black and white storytelling that books are accustomed to.
The characters are also a lot of fun. There are so many fun and unique designed characters. Each person feels different in personality and powers from one another, even going as far as having different moral compasses the dictate their actions.
I cannot wait to continue this series and see where this series takes me, and how it will continue to tackle the topic of right versus wrong.
