Amanda Bridgeman liked Michael W Anderson's review of Sound of Light: A Marvel: School of X Novel (Marvel School of X): "Fantastic read! This book takes place in a very specific point in time for Dazzler; and is set in a slightly alternate timeline (Earth 618 perhaps). I love the focus on character development and worling through trauma while building trust and skillfu" Read more of this review »
