I like the concept of tying in Superman's creation to the Bible but there's something about Meltzer's writing that prevents me from feeling as much of an emotional attachment to the story as I would like.

Some of the characters and dialogue are really annoying but I'm liking the overall plot. I do wish it would hurry and explain what the Book is, though. I know Siegel's father was guarding it but what was it? I want to know the connection between Superman and Abel, dang it! LOL

Pretty good so far. It really hasn't done much of anything with the Superman/Cain/Abel subplot yet other than allude to it, but I think I'm going to like it more than the first Meltzer novel I read (Dead Even).
