Ten years ago, Victor and his friend Eli decided to prove their theory that when someone survives a death near experience (and they are actually dead for a little while) they become EOs, ExtraOrdinary people with superpowers. But when they experiment on themselves and prove their theory, things go horribly wrong and Victor ends up in prison. Ten years later, he wants revenge. After escaping, he starts his search of Eli with the help of Mitch, his cellmate, and a girl they found gun wounded on the street called Sidney, who turns out is also an EO, and has been shot by Eli and her sister Serena, another EO. They soon realize Eli is trying to kill every EO there is because of what happened with Victor, and only Victor can stop him. 
 I loved this story. The characters were dark and interesting, both Victor and Eli so complex and simple at the same time. They are both filled with jealousy and bitterness, both are proud egocentrics and talented at the same time. But while acknowledges his dark side and his lack of empathy, Eli uses his religion to feed his ego and self-righteousness. While the idea that the last thoughts are what define the power that they gain makes total sense, in a way it also ends up defining the characters. Professor Lyne was right in saying they redefine themselves based on their abilities. But they also are a consequence of how they were before dying because their last thoughts are related to their personality. While Victor can give or take pain because of how much painful his death was, it also relates to his personality. Eli can heal, and that gives him the false idea that he has been chosen by God, that he's different from the other EOs. Serena's strong will and personality makes her bend others with only words. Sidney's sweetness makes her give people a second chance at life. 
 I really liked how the story develops, how the chapters go between the present and the past, and that there are differents PoV but they don't feel forced or like the story skips from one character to another. I also liked its ending, and at first I thought it was a solo book so I was sad to see so much potential end there. It's a great ending, but I liked the characters so much that while it ended perfectly, I wanted more. 
 So Victor killing Serena was surprising, but her letting Sidney go was comforting. It means all Eos are not so broken and detached from feelings. The dog reviving a second time was a big, big plus in my book. At the end, Victor couldn't kill Eli, but killing Serena made the police finally arrest Eli and put him in jail. And Sidney revived Victor, but we don't know if he still has his powers or how she will react when she finds out Eli didn't kill Serena, Victor did. 
 Part of me wonders if in the next book they will revive Angie. 
 What I wonder is if the series is called Villains because of Victor and his crew. Victor argues that good or bad, villains and heroes are only a matter of perspective, and Eli seems to believe himself a hero, so they definitivly are villains in terms of Eli's perspective. But are there any good people in the story? 
 I can't wait for the next book!!
