Rating: 4 stars
Summary: intenerting confrontation between superheroes and new forces
Review: As a parent, I constantly extoll my kids to "be smarter, not stronger" when dealing with obstacles in life. Often this runs counter to superhero philosophies - maybe because in comics and other visual media, fighting stronger makes for more interesting visuals. A benefit of superhero prose, like Gen13©: Time and Chance, is that the written word can make the character's internal processes and thoughts as involving as the action sequences. Fans will get some of both approaches as Caitlin, Sarah, Bobby, Edward and Roxy (AKA Fairchild, Rainmaker, Burnout, Grunge and Freefall) battle an opponent whose abilities rival those of Max Faraday from "Divine Right."

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Scott is a brilliant writer!!
Review: I've been to the bookstores and have seen a lot of your books and find the characters to be believable and empathetic. Young people seem to really enjoy your style and ability to create surprise, mystery and excite, all the while weaving very grounded principles and morals to the stories.
