In this one our kids go on to year two of their superhero education. Exams happen, fights, some parties. People outside the college are getting involved with them and big events in the outside world are influencing what happens to them.

I would say this was more of the same as the first book. I still enjoy it. I feel the writing has improved, even though there are still some awkwardly overwritten parts, they are less and less at this point.

I have one issue with it, though. It's small, but still. There are a lot of characters, all of them with their own superpower. Sometimes I really didn't remember who did what, especially because some of the skills overlap in use. One girl has siren song, another manipulates noise to attack. Which is which now? Sometimes a character gets mentioned and I don't remember what they can do, but then it turns out maybe we weren't even told yet.
