Want to know an author's nightmare (or at least one of them)? Picking up a novel so good that you read it to the exclusion of finishing writing one of your own. That makes Seven Wonders my nightmare.Well-written, well-paced, well-plotted. The story of Tony Prosdocimi and his interactions with Cowl, Blackbird and the Seven Wonders draws you in to a fascinating alternate reality where every city once had its own superheroes and supervillains. Sharp prose places you deep in the action and makes the city of San Ventura come alive. Adam is obviously a fan of the comic book genre, and while this book hasn't a single drawing, the tone is classic Golden Age comics. I won't touch on the plot fearing every comment might be a spoiler.Here's hoping there are more books from Adam set in this world he's created, just after my manuscript's deadline passes, please.
