Super Powereds: Year 1

Super Powereds, Book 1

De: Drew Hayes

Narrado por: Kyle McCarley

Knowledge is power. That would be the motto of Lander University, had it not been snatched up and used to death by others long before the school was founded. For while Lander offers a full range of courses to nearly all students, it also offers a small number of specialty classes to a very select few. Lander is home to the Hero Certification Program, a curriculum designed to develop students with superhuman capabilities, commonly known as Supers, into official Heroes. Five of this year's freshmen are extra special. They have a secret aside from their abilities - one that they must guard from even their classmates.

For every one person in the world with abilities they can control, there are three who lack such skill. These lesser super beings - Powereds, as they are called - have always been treated as burdens and second-class citizens. Though there has been ample research in the area, no one has ever succeeded in turning a Powered into a regular human, let alone a Super.

That is, until now....

give it a chance

this book starts out really slow, with boring generic characters and crappy names like mr numbers and mr transport. I was about to give up on this, but i didn't have anything else to read, so i stuck with it. and i'm glad i did.

it's like a standard teenage movie / tv serie AT först, which is mildly entertaining, but it morphs into more superhero stuff as The characters grow.

now i'm off to get The second book. i'm itching to hear the rest!

Stick with it

It starts out slow and this is one of the first books I almost did not finish

My guilty pleasure...

This series is a lot of fun. The characters are well developed and plot / situation is exciting. More please.

I'm so glad I bought this book!!

I was a little apprehensive at first after listening to the sample. The narrator's subtle gasps between lines were heavily present in the sample but relatively scarce in the book. I was worried that would get on my nerves but I was quickly pulled so deeply into the story that I didn't notice; too lost in the story to care! I loved it passionately! from the variety of relatable (and believable) characters to the perfect progression! I've already purchased the rest of the series and I'm excited to continue on to book 2!

A must.
