Jim's Review

🐛
Jim appreciates a good blood metaphor, even if he technically doesn't have blood (hemolymph, thank you very much). Aveyard mashes up X-Men powers with palace intrigue and revolution, and it mostly works. The twists hit hard even when you see them coming. It's not reinventing the wheel, but it's a fun spin. Three electrifying worms.
