Only a tiny fraction less excellent than Vol. 1. Some interesting new characters and exciting plot twists, but I'm slightly disappointed in the shift in focus from teamwork and friendship to romance.

We meet Victor and he becomes a part of the team, Karolina leaves earth, there is a ex-teen super hero support group, and the runaways help out Cloak discover who attacked Dagger.
The second huge book of this series and I'm still in love. I hear there's a third compiled book coming out and can't bloody wait.
See my review for Vol. 1 if you really want to know how I feel about this.
