Kaleb, Season I (Paperback)

Customer Review

The novel Kaleb had intrigued me from reading the back cover. The banner "recommended at least fifteen years" had stirred my curiosity. I needed it!

Kaleb is a teenager of nineteen years that could be called bad boy. The boy uses his good looks to lead a good life, all without any qualms. One day, he manages to capture the emotions of others, that's how he discovers that he is empath: he manages to find out what his entourage feels and is used to manipulate people. Then a mysterious sentinels group decides to track him down.

Kaleb is one of those books I do not know what to think. The reading was not difficult, on the contrary, it reads rather well. The romance of the mysterious Myra Eljundir (the author uses a pseudonym and prefers to remain anonymous) could be described as literary UFO: Too teen novel for adults but too adult for young people. The "not recommended at least fifteen years' is a good compromise (and a good publicity stunt).

What we accept Kaleb, it is mainly the characters. Unlike other novels where just a nice counter a villain here, there is no balance, which makes reading so special, so unhealthy. In general, when you read a novel, we look for a character to whom we can relate. Myra Eljundir created heroes so complex that you can not find one who will talk about, and that's very disturbing.

Moreover, speaking of characters, I was disappointed by Kaleb. The back cover promised us a real villain and yet, I mainly saw a clueless teenager overwhelmed. The real villain, for me, the Colonel: pitilessly man who devoted his life to tracking down children as Kaleb. It made me shudder! Small flat, I did not like the girls in the novel that does not give a very good image of the woman, devoted and obedient, a little character would have been welcome.

Otherwise, the work of the author is remarkable: the references to the Eyjafjallajökull volcano are well integrated, loved passages of David's newspaper, one of the first Children Volcano, written by Myra Eljundir is fluid and cold, which fits perfectly to the novel. If I have struggled with the first two parts more contemplative, as warn you, the rest of the novel is full of suspense and rebound: you will hardly put the book down. The paranoid climate is really addictive. Kaleb reads alone!

I thought I'd be tougher than that by writing my column, but no. The novel Myra Eljundir is a good first volume which suggests an even richer suite, despite figures too extreme in my opinion.
