My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This made me feel like I did reading the Poet Anderson novels by Tom Delonge and Suzanne Young. Set in a gritty and dark New York, an unlikely and diverse group of misfits are thrown together as they take on the different districts that make up the big Apple into each of their souls, gaining some unique abilities in the process. The city needs help from an invading, parallel universe force and these guys want to stop it. They've been a part of the city for all of 5 minutes, but now they are it and they will do what they can. We think.
Really interesting premise - a little slow at times, but really quite tense and for the most part, the descriptive writing really nails the grunge nature that is NYC. Unique, modern sci-fi.
