Review: Started very slow, but the recovery was surprisingly pleasing to read

It's a bit hard to fairly review this story.  The beginning was in my opinion very poorly constructed.  The basic premise that two apparent orphans might have a father who had been locked away in a prison for superhumans since before their birth was interesting, but R.J. Ross had the daughter prove to be as flighty a female teen as I've ever suffered through.  Early on her angst filled scenes as she tries to decide which of several jerks to fall in lust with were beyond annoying.Fortunately, the story quickly gets past that and the characters actually prove to be well rounded and well thought out.  None of the characters truly "stars" in this story, but its a great start to the series and a fun read.  In the end I'd say it managed to overcome the early problems, but you have to be able to read through the first 40-50% of the book to actually reach the good section so I can only give this story 3 stars
