Manuel Gonzales - The Regional Office Is Under Attack!

Didn't fully live up to the promise of its premise: secret Manhattan office of girl superheroes protecting the world against the massed forces of evil and supported by a middle management-filled bureaucracy comes under attack. And that's despite my not knowing before that the attack would turn out to come from a splinter group of other female superheroes, or that one of the main defenders would be a cyborg (mechanical arm; otherwise human), or that the chapters would tend to be somewhere in the vicinity of 3-5 pages in length and full of unabashed action! But, still, quite the enjoyable read for all of the reasons above, with some degree of emotional sophistication and a prose style that hits some interesting notes into the bargain.
