DESCRIPTION:
Great book! S Elizabeth Fox I would recommend it a thousand times over.. "Once I started reading, I didn't stop until I was finished" according to Patrick Campbell. Excellent book! The market for this type of book is not nearly as large as I'd like, and this particular book is one that you dread ending.I spent hours perusing the different superhero themed novels I could find on Amazon, not really finding what I was looking for. Finally, I stumbled across Unlucky Seven. It leans a bit heavy on the references to comic book hero origins, but it makes sense the further you get into the book.I found the characters relatable and the powers familiar, yet unique enough to the wielders that it didn't just feel like the aut. as a collection of super hero wannabe's actually get the chance to become super Daniel Perron just finished reading unlucky seven, found it to be very entertaining, as a collection of super hero wannabe's actually get the chance to become super heros and have to deal with all the ramifications and problems that come with thatending was open ended i cant wait for the sequelthis would make a great tv series. excellent!!!!!

Anyone obsessed with pop-culture will appreciate the vastly self-aware humor injected into the obviously twisty and only faintly serious narrative. The life of a superhero is so bland when you can see everything coming from a mile away. When a bunch of twenty-something geeky slackers are suddenly granted abilities beyond their comprehension they must decide for themselves whether to become a force of good, evil, or apathy as they become embroiled in a self-aware romp through every pop-culture trope about superheroes that was ever invented. Unlucky Seven is a novel that shines a glaring light on the writing between the lines of the typical superhero origin story. You may dream of becoming a villainous torme
