Cassidy Jones And Vulcan's Gift (2000) - Plot & Excerpts
I loved this book. There is something so thrilling about a young girl living the secret life of a Super Hero. And what a great super hero Cassidy is turning out to be. You would think that it would take precedence over everything else, but Cassidy is a teenage girl first, with teenage feelings and aspirations who just happens to be a super hero. She loves, she hurts she cries, and carries on with her day-to-day life, yet the power she yields could so easily corrupt her in ways that would make her unrecognizable to her family and her friends.She is trying very hard to cope with the changes taking place, and trying to control the power within her seems all-consuming at times, but with the help of her 'sidekick', the handsome and charming Emery she is coming to terms with these incredible changes. It is not always easy, but she is no pushover and is determined to succeed.Another reason why I love this book, and the series, is the cast of characters that surrounds Cassidy. Each character is extremely well thought out and they all fit so well into the story, each with their own personality traits, be they good or bad, which makes for really interesting reading.I loved this book and highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good YA adventure story.Oh yes, Cassidy has a little brother - his name is Chazz - I want a little boy just like him, he is adorable :) Not bad. Still lots of very accurate teenage hands-over-ears oblivious angst, which given I'm not a teenager and Cassidy isn't someone I know I actually find pretty amusing.These stories aren't epic or long, but they're fun to read and that's all I'm looking for.I do occasionally wish Ms Stokes would 'start the story at the moment the protagonist's life changes', but her approach seems to work out well in general.I learned from this book that not all Siberian Tigers are white and black, some have some orange too.
