Accidental acquisition of super powers is an incredible concept.

So fascinating with action packed I rate this book 3 out of 10 because this book should be in comic book format so that it can be more enjoyable.

Ive just read the sample and I would never have guessed it was a first time author, and was surprised when you mentioned it. The writing style is surprising mature for a first time go. I also found that the immediate acceptance of Rob's powers by his friends a little unrealistic. Great review.

This story definitely does not fit within any specific genre so the categorization of other genre fits perfectly. I like the mix of mystery and fantasy that is in this novel. My favorite part is that even though Rob has superhuman powers he uses logic and reason to solve crimes. I also enjoyed that his friends helped him along his journey. I wonder how the Velvet Vandal managed to steal cultural landmarks and want to read the book to find out.

The review is quite good. Rob having broken up with Marriane realises a lab in the basement of her premise when he was about to clear his stuff from the premise. Curiosity must have been raised as one would want to know what happened there.

Nice review. This sounds like a fun read for fans of superhero novels with mystery, superpowers, action, humor and of course villains. Thanks so much for sharing.

What an interesting plot idea! I love the fact that Rob`s powers are exploited to the maximum, as is often done in books like these, and left to play a rather supportive role instead. The perspectives given in the culture blog at the beginning of the book was interesting as well. Thanks for the review.

The highlights here: great, informative local color, a fun, suspenseful plot, and low-key, likable characters
