Entertaining?Heart-touching?Amusing... With his watered-down, lukewarm super heroes, like Warrior Woman (Wonder Woman), Uberman (Superman), and Silver Bullet (Flash), they are surprisingly human and very believable. This is a story of teen Thom Creed?s coming of age, and his discovery of his powers, hidden sexuality, and the mysteries of his life surrounded by heroes. I look forward to the next book Perry Moore writes. I really enjoyed ?Hero?.
