So many things are happening to Adam, starting with his raging hormones and ending with personal tragedies. Among that he learns to fight crime alongside his best friends, and it's not going to be an easy journey.The book combines everything you want in a superhero story: self-identity, love interest, struggle, payoff and an unexpected twist in the end that will keep you wondering what's going to happen next. It's not just games for Reaper, Ace and Echo, it's the real danger, real weapons and criminals. They start with helping the others, but very soon need help themselves.Adam's superpowers come in handy when he faces danger from a source neither him, nor anyone else expects to be behind the mask of his archenemy. It's a real journey for the main character, from being a regular high school student to becoming a savior through pain, loss and tragedy, but you always expect him to end up being a winner no matter what challenges he's facing. You need him to win and you want him to win.Great example of a YA/Superhero combination!
