I rate the book 4 out of 4 stars. I actually enjoyed the fact that it talks about super heroes because I am a big fan of them. The book was very interesting and I found nothing to dislike. My favorite character is Rion Grean, a 17 year old boy, who can move objects with his mind. I recommend this book to lovers of science fiction novel.

My rating for this story is 4 out of 4 stars. The storyline is very interesting and mysterious. I liked how well developed Rion's character is as we watch him go through the confusing stage of having superpowers until he finally manages to master it

This book deserves a full rate, 4 out of 4 Stars the writing style is comprehensive, I further recommend this book to lovers of technology and the sci-fi genre. I love the protagonist young and energetic on the other hand I could imagine the things he went through for example the feeling of not knowing who your father really is.

For me, the use of the first person narrative was a little slow in the beginning, but when it got going it went fast. To be honest, if I was not reading this for a review I wouldn’t have read far enough to get to the exciting part. I loved the Predaters and their passion while I was put off by all of the “snarls” and “scowls”. I will recommend it, however, to teens who are struggling. Things DO get better.

This book gets a perfect rating of four stars from me. I enjoyed how the Clairvoyants didn't really know each other when Rion joined but knew they had to fight together to defeat their common enemy. Rion's trait to also make sacrifices for others is exemplary. I highly recommend the book to lovers of fantasy stories where the characters have telekinetic powers.

Once Rion meets up with others with similar talents, it felt as if the author was in a hurry to get to the action and forfeited character development. Nevertheless, the book has the potential for an ongoing interesting series. As the first book in a series with some outstanding issues, it sets the stage for additional adventures. Hopefully, the author will narrow the scope and take time to develop his characters as he did in the beginning with Dee and Rion. Unfortunately, the novel contained several punctuation errors that undermined the overall quality of the book. Consequently, I rate this book 3 out of 4 stars.

I enjoyed this book immensely. Mostly because of the feelings of Rion in the beginning. He felt like a social outcast and unworthy as well as not wanting friends. I think lots of teenagers feel this way. At least more than feel like they fit in.

I really enjoyed The Fourth Kinetic, especially the many life lessons found in the book. I thought Rion’s ability to move objects with his mind was fascinating. I disliked the errors in the text and I also thought the author could have developed the supporting characters more. I recommend this book to young adults and anyone who enjoys science fiction. I rate this book 3 out of 4 stars for the reasons I mentioned above.

We are speaking about a well-written and well-documented book. I like it that the characters are developed and have depth. I would probably rate this book four out of four stars. As other reviewers say, it's difficult to put it down once you start reading it. I totally recommend and I am intrigued to identify the borders, if, any, of the mind.

I gave this book a 4 out of 4 stars because it is an interesting science fiction with a lot of lessons to learn. The book had interesting characters but I love the character of Rion which changed as he matured. Nice concept. Waiting for the next book.

I really liked the storyline, but it also felt a little outdated. Teenage boy with unnatural abilities suddenly finds that his mother has been lying and keeping things from him and a government agency is hunting him down. I am hoping that the future books adds a little more depth to the characters. It felt like Rion suddenly appeared and bested the others who had been working with their abilities for years before he was born. Was this because he was part of another group of clairvoyants with advanced abilities? I am hoping the next book in the series goes into a little more detail.

Brady Moore's science fiction novel The Fourth Kenetic delves into a cogent plotline about supernatural powers. The book is well written, and the character development is apparent, earning it a 4 out of 4 stars from me. Furthermore, the book is professionally edited and is jam-packed with intriguing episodes. Rion and his mother should have been more open with each other, in my opinion. I presume she should have clarified their abilities to his son Rion. Overall, this book transcends me to a different time and place and is worthy of time commitment.

Never have I read a science fiction novel as interesting as this one. To say it is interesting is just an understatement. I love Rion's transitioning in the novel, he seemed like a totally different character at the final outcome. Also, some traits about him are enviable but one thing about the book is the characters. The story seems to only focus it's attention on Rion and ignore the others and the characters are fairly developed. I would still rate this book a 3 out of 4 stars. It is amazing!

In my opinion, this book is a page turner. The narrative flows smoothly, and the editing is great. I would recommend it to teens and adults alike who love sci/fi. Rion's experiences in his sixth school in 4 years would make for an iteresting read.

This SciFi book is an exciting one with an amazing storyline. I loved the writing style of the author. Although it was slow-paced initially, the rest of the book, however, made up for this. Rion, although being the main character, won my best character in this novel. I loved the whole concept of his abilities. My rating of this book is 4 out of 4 stars.
