In addition, the millionaire Shirelain is being creepedout by the shady stranger T.C., who is obviously pursuing his own plans.Furthermore, Logan still has to deal with a substance called ¿Hydro-Gel¿,the South Seas, a school, a mysterious and ancient brotherhood,a secret society and his personal nemesis, when a duel begins,not only between ¿Titan¿ and ¿C.I.C.C.¿...Conclusion: As always, Kathryn Knight again exploits all the nuances of herextraordinary linguistic talent, her plastic storytelling, to create an entertaining, exciting tale that stretches the boundaries of the old-fashioned, that isintelligent, exciting, and different from old-fashioned literature.In addition, there is a touch of not quite serious irony and the scientific aspects areembedded in the story with a wink of the eye in a relaxed, light-hearted way!
