I normally read Morrison, Egan, Steinbeck and the like. Yet, it was Christmas and I wanted to read something with my nephew. He had selected this book, a classmate said it was like Potter but more intense. We were both amused with the story of this gifted kids. Made me think of the days of my youth when I read the X-Men comics, before young-lit and teen-lit took over like a wild fire. The writing moved the story along at a brisk pace and I did not find any of the errors to be so many that I became distracted. Yet, then again I am more about form over substance. This was like the best type of comic-book: sci-fi, adventure, actions, and thought-provoking. I really enjoyed this as did my Nephew.
