I came upon this novel itching to read a super hero story after reading all the good ones I knew of. I decided this looked less bad than the others and gave it a try.
It doesn't try to hard to be a grand epic story, but still manages to have a good amount of intrigue and plot hooks. It is light enough to pick up and ready a chapter or two without getting lost.
The prose is pretty good, a few grammar errors here or there, but easily fixable with another editing pass.
Looking forward to more!
