LeseeindruckIch dachte erst ich mag dieses Buch ein bisschen weniger als das erste. Ich hätte einfach nicht so viel zweit zwischen erstem und zweitem Band verstreichen lassen sollen. Noch eins hat mich gestört und zwar die Sache mit Taser, er hätte die Möglichkeit gehabt seinen Posten aufzugeben oder zu wechseln. Ich finde er hätte mehr haben können als er sich geholt hat. An sich war die Geschichtespannungsgeladen, in beiden Passagen im Jetzt und Damals und sogar in den nettenOkay, yes, I coauthored the book, so I'm biased. But I've been rereading it -- or, really, reading it for the first time as a book, not a manuscript or page proofs or even an ARC -- and I have to admit...I really am enjoying it as a reader. And that's a pretty cool feeling.Thank you for reading SHADES OF GRAY. I hope you enjoy it!
I can't believe I didn't review this when I actually read it! I finally broke down and bought it from Amazon because DCPL didn't show any signs of buying it--although now it looks like they did. Oh, well, I couldn't wait.This was a great follow-up to Black and White, and answers a question that fantasy & SF don't tackle often enough--i.e., what happens when the Evil Empire/Corporation/Whatever is actually defeated?In this case, chaos, as Corp-brainwashed superheroes shed their programming
I have to say that Jet is my favorite character in this book. I am looking forward to reading 'Black and White.'
Shades of Gray picks up and continues on from Black and White. After revealing the academy has been using mind control on all the super heroes, Iridium and Jet hope to stop them once and for all. Now that the super heroes are no longer under the control of the academy, things are a bit chaotic. Some of the super heroes did not like learning that they were puppets and have taken to vandalism and a life of crime. Others like Jet are still super heroes. Iridium and Jet will have to band together to
Short review. AWESOME!!! Could've been two books, it's jam packed from start to finish, and I really, really, really hope someday to see a third. READ THESE BOOKS!
Shades of Grey is the perfect sequel to Black & White in that it is a more polished version of it's predecessor with a little bit of embellishment. But I didn't like the last book that much. Fortunately a few of my big concerns are taken care of. True to it's name, this book is where the gray scale becomes more apparent. Not only that but our protagonists are being proactive. But I think the best improvement is in the flashbacks. They tie into the main plot far more than in the previous book
