"Seven Wonders slams readers in the gut from the very first page and then just keeps on firing cannons, giving readers the same choice as every single citizen of San Ventura - either duck and cover, or ride along with the laser."
"Inventive, engaging, bewitching, and delightful,"
"This is Watchmen meets NYPD Blue, while The Incredibles stroll by."

"A smart, entertaining, energetic take on the superhero genre.”

"artfully plotted and thrilling action-adventure with some satisfying set-piece confrontations and amazingly rounded characterisation.”
