Joan is at her happiest when she uses her powers - stirring air currents, creating fire, and levitating metal objects - but she learned at a young age that no one in her small-minded suburban town was prepared to accept her abilities. Since that painful revelation, she has hidden her powers, isolating herself from others, even keeping her own parents at a distance.

However, all that changes when a boy named Daniel Thundyil transfers to her school and she begins to suspect that he is concealing powers of his own. Burning with curiosity and desperate to end her loneliness, Joan makes it her mission to get to the bottom of this boy's secrets. What she doesn't realize is that Daniel isn't just another Earthling with uncanny abilities; he is an inter-dimensional traveler from a world of super-powered beings. And the moment she started prying into his life, she put herself in the sights of the godlike evil that follows him from his dimension.

Now, the most powerful girl on Earth faces a choice: will she retreat back to the safety of her life in hiding or brave the storm for a chance at truth and friendship?

For Daniel Thundyil and his crime-fighter father, Robin, adventures in exotic places are nothing new. The two of them have chased criminals all over their own planet of super-powered beings. But this is the first time a mission has brought them to a parallel dimension, and something about it doesn't sit right with Daniel. Questions gather like storm clouds: Who is this villain they are hunting? Why won't Robin reveal his name? As the sky darkens, Daniel and Joan start to wonder who is really being hunted.

Oh what a disappointment

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 November 2019

Verified Purchase

I bought this book after reading the excellent Sword of Kaigen which is a mature exhilarating read.

This book , written in a YA style , is the opposite and tells the silly story of an super-powered thirteen year old and the boy from another dimension who comes to her school whilst he and his father are hunting a killer. Yes, it’s as stupid as it sounds. Our heroine is a bratty precocious child who no-one could warm to which doesn’t help.

There’s a thing as well where so much of this world seems at odds with what we saw in the Sword of Kaigen, you know like inter-dimensional space travel in this book compared to the reasonably techy but still feudal world in Sword of Kaigen.

I can only assume that Sword was written by the author when she was a bit more grown up, whilst this was written when she was thirteen herself.

It’s awful. But don’t be put off Sword, that’s fantastic.

Good read, interesting premise and solid characters

Reviewed in Germany on 26 March 2019

The idea: A young girl. Joan, has super powers. She’s had them all her life. But she’s the only human on earth with these abilities. Besides her struggling to keep this whole thing a secret and flying under the radar, a family of interdimensional bounty hunters appears in her neighbourhood. It turns out: They are special too. But there’s a reason behind their appearance in her town.

On the con side:

Exposition
We get a whole chapter dedicated to her baby-years and how she learned to conceal her powers. It’s well written. But it would have been so much cooler if it was embedded in the story. Instead, it’s just narration. It’s like a montage in a super hero movie. This makes the whole process rather dull and she seems oh so perfect in the end.

Then there’s the thing with the parallel universe. Joan gets all the information on a silver platter. Instead of discovering it bit by bit, Space-Dad shoves it in her face.

On the other hand: He doesn’t mention crucial stuff. Because children shouldn’t have to deal with such stuff. While this is a perfectly good answer in real life, it undermines the whole concept of the book. Why did he take his son with him without giving him background information? Why did he tell the children anything at all? It just feels as if this information was left out to create conflict.

Age
No teenage character acts their age. Either that or I’m really out of touch with teenagers. Joan’s supposed to be 13 but she speaks and acts like 30. Same goes for Daniel, son of Space-Dad. They judge the consequences of their actions correctly, they show knowledge beyond their years, and they notice stuff normal teenagers would ignore. They don’t even seem to be a huge problem to their parents - for different reasons.

Fillers in dialogue
There’s a difference between dialogue and spoken language. Theonite doesn’t always respect that boundary which makes reading dialogue cringe worthy. There are some fillers in it (like) which have no place being there. I know it’s supposed to sound more natural, but the opposite is the case. It’s just awkward.

On the pro side:

I really liked the plot. It’s interesting to see what a girl would do with her superpowers when there was no-one around to teach her. No mentor, no guidance, no-one to trust. Especially considering Joan’s family situation.

Characters
Even though I just criticised the actions of those teens, I’m glad they don’t act their age. I’m not into children’s books. (Unfortunately, Amazon doesn’t show the age of the target audience in my country.) I got the feeling that the characters have (mostly) a very good reason for being who they are, that there’s a story behind their quirks and behaviour in general. That’s great.

The parents
There’s quite a good explanation for Joan’s parents acting the way they do. So even though she’s got both, mum and dad, she’s basically free to do whatever she wants. And we do see how she feels about it.

The writing itself is good. It’s easy to read and engaging enough to be interesting. Nicely done.

All in all I give Theonite a solid 3 out of 5 Stars which makes it a good read. Writing, characters and plot are great, it’s just these parts with exposition and the age of the protagonist which bother me.

An Solid YA book

Reviewed in Brazil on 17 December 2019

Verified Purchase

The reviewers that gives this book a 1, 2 stars are mostly being unfair, because they probably read the sword of kaigen first (a masterpiece, imo), but a VERY different kind of book, this a YA, that was a drama book on a fantasy setting, two completely different beasts.

Said that, and given the fact that this is her first book, and it is round around the edges, it's a worthwile read if you're into YA, and the mature themes that shines on TSOK appears on a rough state here, the shitty relation on the family of the protagonist, the feeling of impending doom of a seemingly invincible antagonist.

Amazing

Reviewed in Canada on 21 October 2019

Verified Purchase

One of the most unique series I've ever read. Has amazing world building in both universes. I love how Planet Adyn and it's power system was introduced and can't wait to read it to the end. The characters are amazing and I love the parent-child relationships depicted. The mystery is really well done too.
