Publisher's summary

Ever since she could walk, Homicide Detective Deena Pilgrim followed in her father's footsteps. A man with a badge, Waldo Pilgrim surrounded himself with what Deena believed to be the cream of the crop when it came to serving and protecting. These days, Deena won't discuss her father or the life she left behind in Atlanta years ago, a life before she partnered with Christian Walker to investigate homicide cases in a city where perps and victims boast incredible, dangerous powers. Now, nearly a decade of bringing Powers to justice has broken down Deena's resolve, along with the walls she erected long ago to protect herself from prying eyes. Walls that kept her from a past best left alone, and from those determined to get close and bring horrible, heartbreaking memories to the surface once more.

Bendis is amazing

Brian Michael Bendis is easily one of the greatest author of the last decade. The fact that he primarily writes comics should have nothing to do with him getting the recognition that he deserves. The man's pacing and character building is second to none.

Pilgrim's Past Revealed

As a long time fan of Bendis & Oeming's "Powers" comic book, I couldn't wait to check this out. It's fantastic & a very welcome addition to the "Powers" cannon.

How terrible this was

Well, this was terrible. I am greatly surprised because Brian Bendis is one of the greatest comic book authors I’ve ever read, so this book being as horrible as it was, was a complete surprise. Maybe this book was written more by Neil Klein, and only based on characters by Bendis, because I couldn’t find any resemblance to any other Brian Bendis writing in this book. I struggled to finish it.
