Batman: Nightwalker
by Marie Lu
Bruce Wayne ends up working at Arkham Asylum. There he meets the beautiful and brilliant Madeline Wallace, who he thinks can help solve the case of the Nightwalkers, who are targeting the rich and elite.
This is a book I thought was great...for like 120 pages. For like half a book you have an interesting stand off between an 18 year old Bruce Wayne and a brilliant Arkham inmate. Batman is, usually, I think, a great character to match up to good villains. Here, he doesn't really have one after the first half of the novel. Their interaction starts off intriguing, you want to know what's gonna happen and then you slowly lose the thread of what makes it intriguing and it devolves into classic YA territory.
I realise that's the general gist of these books, but with how promising the start was I was hoping that it would work its way into a more intriguing story. If you're a fan of twists and turns that come a long in comics and you can't really see coming quite often, then this is probably not for you. If you like YA, then it probably is.
