Book Description

2 Jun 2009
It's the ultimate battle of good versus good.

They were best friends at an elite academy for superheroes in training, but now Callie Bradford, code name Iridium, and Joannie Greene, code name Jet, are mortal enemies. Jet is a by-the-book hero, using her Shadow power to protect the citizens of New Chicago. Iridium, with her mastery of light, runs the city’s underworld. For the past five years the two have played an elaborate, and frustrating, game of cat and mouse.

But now playtime’s over. Separately Jet and Iridium uncover clues that point to a looming evil, one that is entwined within the Academy. As Jet works with Bruce Hunter—a normal man with an extraordinary ability to make her weak in the knees—she becomes convinced that Iridium is involved in a scheme that will level the power structure of America itself. And Iridium, teaming with the mysterious vigilante called Taser, uncovers an insidious plot that’s been a decade in the making…a plot in which Jet is key.

They’re both right. And they’re both wrong. Because nothing is as simple as Black and White.

Just came across this book by mistake really, and took it on holiday wanting a fun read from the superhero genre. J'know what, I really enjoyed it! It's not your four-colour, wham-bam, mutant-fest, more a sophisticated character study of life with the curse/boon of incredible powers and a richly dark backdrop of real world politics and dilemmas. The ending seemed a little less than hermetic which frustrated me, not tying up some loose ends, but then I found out why.... on the back page it said that it's to be a part of a series! I think I did a little dance then that somewhat bewildered my wife. Can't wait for the next exciting episode in this promising saga. Thanks to Jackie and Caitlin for writing a cracking good read, John.

I love superhero novels and this is the best I've read so far.

A thrilling story coupled with memorable characters make this a book that I would recommend to anyone. Iridium has become one of my all time fav characters.
