I couldn't finish this book. This reads like a dragon ball z comic. Characters keep reaching new heights of capability to the degree that it becomes impossible to suspend disbelief. The main character is becoming a real superman, it won't be long now before he can stop bullets with his eyes. This accelerated development of technology always leads to trouble. The author will no doubt come up with ever more convoluted challenges for the main character & co. Not to mention that the fictional universe the author has created begins to suffer from internal contradiction. With the technology that is now available why are characters still behaving like they live in the 20th century? It's a shame really the series started off well. ( )
