Review: Starts out with a bang and keeps on going.
Rating: 4 out of 5

A Class Apart starts out with a bang (pun intended) and just keeps going.  The book description, in my opinion, provides a good overview of the storyline.  This read is nonstop action with a supernatural mystery that begs to be unraveled.  James and Sam are very likeable characters and I found myself cheering them on at every turn.  There were a couple of times I wanted to yell at James, who made what I thought were immature decisions, but then had to laugh at myself because James is a young man who would make immature decisions at times; thus, in my opinion, boosting the creepy probability level of the novel.  As the novel obviously takes place in the UK some of the language is a little different from what I am used to and if you are a dyed in the wool activist against a little difference in terminology, be aware the school buses are at times called coaches and do not give up on the read as it is very entertaining.  I am looking forward to the next installment, as this is "Class Heroes 1" I am going out on a limb here and hoping for number two.  I was not thrilled with the ending, as I still feel there are many unanswered questions, which is the sole reason for a 4 star rating, but am definitely eager to read book two to find out what comes next.I received this book from the author with a request for my honest review without any compensation whatsoever, other than the joy of reading a new book.
