Recursion

Wearing the Cape Series, Book 7

By: Marion G. Harmon

Narrated by: Caitlin Kelly

It's been just weeks since the state funeral for the Sentinels, Atlas, Ajax, and Nimbus, lost in the Whittier Base Attack. Astra, Hope, is recovered from her own injuries. At least physically. Mentally... not so much, but she feels ready to actively wear the cape again. Which is good since, between the revelation of her short-lived relationship with Atlas (nine years her senior) and her virally pungent public comments on the current political debate over breakthrough registration (the National Public Safety Act), she needs to raise her profile. But she's better now, steady, ready for anything.

Or is she? First her quantum-ghost BF Shell reveals that something's off. Hope's changed. Unaccountably and impossibly changed, she's not the Hope she was even just last week. Confronted with Shell's evidence, Hope recovers an impossible memory and follows it to the realization that she's really not the Hope of last week. She remembers three years of memories of a life she hasn't lived yet. She remembers the fight with Villains Inc., the addition of the Young Sentinels, her adventures in Littletone, Japan, and across a dozen extrarealities. The one thing she doesn't remember is how she got here.

Fun try at Time Travel and Ret-Con

This was an interesting take at the trope of time travel and ret cons in super hero comics. I usually do not like time travel, but it worked here. The ending is actually a nice surprise, and sets up some really fun possibilities for the future of this series. Overall, a solid book that is fun, my only complaint is that most of the book feels like it is a side story, not a main novel.

Second time was worth it.

This was the second time I’ve listen to this story and really enjoyed it. Was very good and recommend it to anyone interested in the series. Love the continued world building that takes place and the tie back to previous stories.

Wow, this book is like Quantum Leap all over the place..

This is inception with the old TV show Quantum Leap. I wish ONE of the good guys would gain ultra level Powers but I guess that would kill the drama. Excellent audio and story. Will be curious what is coming for Astra next!
