Great 2nd book in the series

Glad to see narration staying the same from book 1 to book 2. The narrator is quite enjoyable to listen to and I find that he makes the characters come to life. The story picks up nicely from the 1st book and continues to develop the characters in a way that helps the reader relate to them and their weaknesses.

Almost perfect

Despite a couple of choices the author made, I continue to love this series. I found myself saying out loud comments like "Oh come on! Why?" some examples include having the kids sneak off to battle a super villain without telling the adults. The fact that they went along with terroristic demands and willingly walked into a trap as though they didn't have any other options. It's absolutely ridiculous. They could have at least left a note which wouldn't have been traceable.

It felt as though the author was trying to force a situation that didn't actually make sense to go down the way it had.

I also found myself wondering why Bella wasn't manipulating water that was inside containers. what I mean is, if she has water manipulation powers to the extent that she can control snow and ice as well, why not also have her able to lift objects that are full of water? She doesn't need to uncap a bottle of water in order to fling the bottle as a projectile using her hydrokinesis. imagine going into a situation where your first attack is a glass bottle smashing in the face of an opponent! once the glass breaks, or even the plastic explodes, you can manipulate the water all around them .

I was wondering why Gabriel never forces the sand into the bodies of the people he ends up killing anyway. using hydrokinesis and sandkinesis, it seems like they are fine with severely injuring and killing at times, although it isn't specifically stated that they're killing people, they don't seem to be using any restraint in some of these situations. why not force sand or water into an opponent's mouth and nose and eyes? very effective methods.

I was confused at why Dan was able to be captured and bound as he was. his strength and bodily endurance is supposed to be increased based on need, right? why would doomsayer be able to capture or bind him? I wish that they had explained that more.

I'm confused at the lack of restraint when the students are facing off against each other in the battle dome. They don't talk enough about how the healing process goes, nor how far a person's body can be injured and still recover from it. The author chose to repeatedly highlight the fact that people are hurting even after visiting the medical facilities. I would think if a healer was there, they would end up having no trace of any injury. I wish this was explained in more detail so that we had a better idea of what occurs. It bothered me how much the students didn't hold back, and how the author doesn't talk about holding back in the battle down. It's supposed to be competitive, sure, but they clearly are severely injuring each other. Tristan's powers alone are outright deadly. how is he not killing the other students when it says he didn't hold back at all? how come the villains get zapped with holes in their chests and are electrocuted to death, but the students aren't? seems a little bit inconsistent.

I know I'm being extremely critical, but I really do love this series. I suppose I just think if I had written it myself, I would have made different choices...but I didn't write it, so I'll shut up.
