I feel like I‘ve seen this trope repeated recently: mysterious incident confers powers to random young bystanders who then coalesce into warring factions. However, this book does it right: we are dropped into the fracas immediately. No time wasted with the ‘how this all started‘ which is boring. Folks from the neighborhood react differently to this and pursue their interests accordingly, kicking off the action. Worth checking out!
