It was thrilling but not so much as Orphan X. It wasn't able to keep up with the pace expected from it just like Orphan X, but it was still a movie watching experience. Starting Hellbent now...cheers to the author.

Another super hero vigilante with unlimited funds training and health. Reasonable story lines but attempts to rationalise the hero are a little ludicrous given the assumptions underlying the character/s. Entertaining pulp fiction.

It was good but dragged a little in the middle. If this has been the first book I wouldn't have read another but given that I had read orphan x first I persevered. It was a less enjoyable read than the first but still enjoyable.
