Powers: #10 - Cosmic


After this one there's only two books left before I'm completely caught up on this series. And I'm kinda sad about it. And the irony is that the book has gotten SO good that an installment like this, which is full of amazing stuff, doesn't blow my mind - because I now EXPECT this book to be this good. So it's an odd thing to say, I suppose - that it's amazing, but it doesn't knock my socks off. I think in a way it does, but also I've been trying to figure out where I would go with this story and the book is doing some similar things. Not to say it's predictable. I'm just a tad obsessed. There is a really lovely creative narrative device that they use in this book that fits it well.

In a series where almost every new book is a game-changer of sorts I look forward to the next two before I have to wait an eternity to continue the story... it's okay... there's enough on my pile otherwise that I've been neglecting.
