Forging Hephaestus

God what a long book, but so worth it. I loved everything about this. Many times the characters knew things that made sense for the story, and this wasn't just pulled out of nowhere. All the characters were unique and diverse in character. But fuck there were a lot of them. 

Many times I had totally forgotten either the power, code name or real name of different characters which made some parts a little confusing but I got through it. I also love the fact that being a villain of a hero in this particular context really says nothing of the moral compass of the person. There were bad guy heroes and good guy villains throughout as well. 

I also love Nexus basically just being a totally insane omnipotent pest. I don't know why, but I like that he just jumps in sometimes to confuse and frighten everyone while he is bored, super interesting.
