Silver V.C. Lancaster Purchased (available on KindleUnlimited)
Let me start this off by saying that I’ve never been all that interested in Superhero's. It’s not that I dislike them, I’ve just never been motivated to get into them. So when I saw the obvious nods to Superman in this book's summary I was a bit hesitant to read it. But since I’ve enjoyed all of the other books I’ve read from V.C Lancaster I thought ‘Why not?’
And I’m honestly so happy I did!
Lancaster has a way of writing such well rounded characters that even when you are upset with them, they still feel authentic and believable. While I didn’t agree with some of Lane's thoughts and actions towards the beginning of the book, there wasn’t a time where I didn’t understand why she acted the way she did. Her character came close a few times to crossing that invisible line but Lancaster was able to expertly navigate those tense moments and in the end I found that I really enjoyed Lane’s head-strong, determined personality.
The aliens in this book weren’t super alien-y, with no tentacles, tails, or extra limbs in sight, but there was enough of a physical and cultural difference that you wouldn’t easily mistake them for humans (at least not without their disguises). So if you like your aliens closer to the human-looking side but with the sexy alien benefits then I think you will be very happy with Kent.
As I stated before Superheroes are not my thing, but after reading this book I might have to reevaluate that idea.
