3.0

I have mixed thoughts about this book. The Immortals give a possibility to a Christian superhero, but I have to admit that I didn't quite buy into the portrayal of 3,500 people. I had this problem with book 1, The 13th Tribe, but more so in this book. Secondly, Luparulo seems to do a lot of telling in this book. Especially of the weapons and how they work. It felt like there was a lot of filler. And half of the conflict was based on an excuse to have a fight, it felt to me.

That being said, I Liparulo illustrates some great points about faith and the reality of a spiritual realm. The illustrations of faith and the struggle to believe redeem this book for me. I imagine this will not be the last in this series and I hope for a stronger story next time.
