Prepare to have your puny Earth-brain blown out the back of your head as Samit Basu takes the idea of superheroes and turns the dial up to 11 - Ben Aaronovitch, bestselling author of the Peter Grant series

For wicked wit, for post-modern superheroics, for sheer verbal energy and dazzle, Samit Basu doesn't so much push the envelope as fold it into an n-dimensional hyper-envelope, address it to your hind-brain and mail it with a rail gun.- Mike Carey, writer of X-Men and Lucifer

Solid writing, great character development, humor, personal loss, and excellent points to ponder in every chapter. Wired on Turbulence
