Hi Prijatelj,
Today review is about debut novel by K.K Pérez The Tesla Legacy.
Lucy Phelps is precocious young scientist.
Following a cryptic clue she ends up at the Tesla Suite of the New Yorker Hotel, where her dormant electrical power finally comes out.
Lucy struggles to understand her abilities that don’t fit within normal science parameters. The more she investigate she finds herself in the middle of a centuries old battle between rival alchemical societies.
One side wants her help and the other wants her dead. Both believe she is the next step in human evolution. Unfortunately, carriers of the genetic mutation including Nikola Tesla have a greatly reduced life expectancy. Even if Lucy can outrun her enemies, she can’t outrun herself.
The Tesla Legacy is an intelligent young adult fantasy.
The lead character Lucy it smart and likeable. It great finding a book where the lead is smart and interested in science. One of my favourite elements was the experiments that she conducts to find out the answers about herself.
The way in which Lucy power works is a really interesting take on the electrical power. It has several different element to her powers that I have read before and found really interesting.
The other aspects of the book I really enjoyed was the history around the alchemical societies, and the fighting between them.
The Tesla Legacy is well written and has romance, action and drama.
If you like science and history with your fantasy than I would advise picking up The Tesla Legacy.
My rating for The Tesla Legacy is 4 out of 5.
