i have never cared about superman, but when this book was in a box of books my dad gave me for posting here, i thought i might as well check it out.

this book made me care about krypton. i really liked superman's parents, and i kept wishing that their world would not be destroyed. i don't think i'll ever watch the superman movies, but this glimpse into anderson's perception of krypton was fascinating.

good, quick read with lots of short chapters.

All Superman fans know the tragic fate of Superman's home world, Krypton. Kevin J. Anderson masterfully reboots the story. He mixes in parts from the comic books, TV and movies...when I say movie I mean the Christopher Reeve version not the one based on the new Man Of Steel movie. The story starts off slow and drags a little until Brainiac makes an appearance. Then the story really takes off. The story tells the rise and fall of a tyrant, the destruction of a planet and the birth of one of the greatest superheroes in comic book history.
