Another great Alan Gratz! This one was a real page turner, and I appreciated being inside only one character’s head this time. I wouldn’t have wanted to be torn away to a different timeline. I didn’t love all the comic book talk, but that is just a personal preference. I loved Frank and Stanley, and thought the racism Stanley experienced was handled well. I look forward to the next Alan Gratz!
