Review of 'We Could Be Heroes' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

I did enjoy this, but it sadly felt a little frenetic in spots. Solutions to plot problems appeared without much forethought or planning, and whilst I recognize this as a fundament of the superhero genre, I don’t think Chen’s handling of it worked particularly neatly. A fast-paced and reasonably stereotypical set piece without much to elevate it to the standard I would have expected from his debut.
