This is one of the most difficult books I have ever tried to read. It has a great plot, interesting characters, and a startling new premise but it is just so hard to read.The problem I had was that the story is told via a lot of different characters and all in snippits at a time. I kept losing track of who was telling each bit of the story. You might read ten paragraphs from one character's point of view then suddenly you are in some other character's head. If I was reading it in a paperback instead of my Kindle I could have put a post-it-note in place with the character's name to keep reminding me but on the kindle and because it jumps from one person to another every few pages it became a nightmare to read.I kept finding that the book made me think of the X-Men all the time. It seems like this could have been an alternate version of how the X-Men were created.Don't expect any real romance or relationships between the characters as this is really minimal at best. If you like a story that rolls along quickly and has lots of twists and turns then you will probably love this book. If you find it really hard going following just who is talking when in the book I suggest you just keep reading. If you get sick of the writing style you can probably just skip to the last few pages and resolve the ending so you are not left wondering what happens LOL.Well thought out concepts and fast paced writing. Highly recommended to patient readers who can handle a quite unusual writing style.
