Review: A NEW HERO
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 03 23, 2014
James McGovern has scored a hit with Martin King and the Space Angels.  In this book, the first in a three part series, the hero Martin King arises as a well developed male hero.  His friends, Darcy and Tommy, are well developed and stand strong as his support team.  The story starts with and alien giving the three kids super-powers and a mission to save the world.  Not an unusual story line:  But that is where "the usual" stops in this book.  From there to the last page,  the story is inventive, original in a very believable way, and thoughtful in a philosophy-of-life kind of way and a page turner to the end. It is a book that will stand with the best of the YA literature on the market today.  You care about the characters and want to accompany them as they continue their journey.  Looking forward to the next books.
