With character names that belong to “anime”, a magic potion that “changes” Tia into an enormous being of extra-strength (think Hulk) and the requisite bad guy “Gaunt” who uses the Vigilante Trio for revenge and mayhem (think the Penguin). So when a police presence appears you have the elements of a Super Hero comic.
Reading this was like watching a “hero” comic book come alive in my mind’s eye so vivid were the descriptions. This is a fast read as the author promised and very different from what I usually read.
