Kelly Meding’s war-ravaged Los Angeles is ground zero for the ultimate Meta human showdown in this sexy, action-packed new series. Fifteen years ago, Teresa “Trance” West was a skilled telepath and a proud member of the Ranger Corps. But ever since the Rangers were inexplicably rendered powerless at the climax of the devastating Meta War, she’s bounced from one dead-end job to another. Now her powers have reappeared just as mysteriously as they vanished— only they’re completely transformed and more potent than ever. And they’re threatening to destroy her. Trance heads to Los Angeles to track down the surviving Rangers and discover who restored her powers—and why—but a phantom enemy is determined to kill them before they can reassemble. As they dodge his deadly attacks and come to terms with their new role as heroes, Trance and the rest of the team set out to annihilate the sinister madman . . . only to discover their own powers are his greatest weapons.

Trance by Kelly Meding has an awesome opener:The bronze man’s head was melting. It oozed fat splats of liquid metal and swirled down the front of his old-fashioned suit jacket to puddle at his feet. Some of it hit the bronze duck below him, adding layers of new metal that mutated it into a nightmari...
I just watched X-Men: First Class the other day and honestly, I didn't like it all that much. I started this and it's almost a clone. Maybe I'll try it again another time, but I don't feel like reading something so un-original >.>
*SPOILERS UP TO APPROX. PAGE 100*I don't know if I will be able to finish this book. The premise itself is good since superheroes are and always will be cool but there are just too many problems with the set up and the characters. Here are some of them that I couldn't get past:1) Teresa, our leading...
