I was introduced to T J Klune with the Extraordinaries. It was a wonderful trilogy. I mean… superheroes, gay superheroes, gay superhero boyfriends, and a superhero in Drag. I was in heaven. I happened to read a review disparaging the books. The reviewer didn’t care for the books because they weren’t up to snuff with what they’ve come to expect from the author. I put little stock in the review because I LOVED the story.
Unfortunately, I can now see what the reviewer meant, because this story is epic and amazing on so many levels. But if I were to review the Extraordinaries to this work, I might go with something like… The Extraordinaries in comparison to Wolfsong, is more of a popcorn flick where Wolfsong is a deeper, heartachingly beautiful story about a boy who finds his mate. The imagery is fantastic. The characters are solid and the story is epic. And wow. Please put Mr Klune on your list of authors to read and follow. You will not be disappointed or dry-eyed.
