Huh. I wanted to love this, but I didn't. I liked it a lot though. The good - great characters. I look forward to spending more time with pyschic Evie, secret-keeping giant Jericho, healer Memphis and his brother Isaiah, chorus girl Theta (who apparently watched the first season of Heroes when she received her power) and her pal Henry, Sam the thief and hoodlum - plus, the periphery characters like Blind Bill (Silar from Heroes anyone?), Sister Walker, and Evie's friend (frenemy-to-be?) Mabel. Also good - the setting. The Roaring 20s setting is great, and the slang Bray uses rings true. Also, also good - the creepy Naughty John mystery. Chills. And now for the not-so-great - dragging, dragging, dragging. Since this is part of a series, A LOT of the story is spent setting up for the second book, and I do mean A LOT. Things happen in this one purely to set-up for the next book and have no bearing on this first story at all. This made the first half of the book really, really slow for me, and it irritated me at the end that many plot points have no resolution at all. Plus, in case you didn't notice it in my previous paragraphs, the plot seemed very much like Heroes: The Prohibition Years. I know everyone didn't watch Heroes like I did, but here we have another group of people with supernatural powers waiting for the BIG STORM which they don't know much about, but they know it will be BAD. Plus, there is even an early generation of folks watching out for the supernatural current Scooby gang. It's all a little too familiar. Let's hope Bray doesn't suffer from the second season curse that Heroes did. I will be reading the next one, but I have my reservations . . .
