(Cue theme music) Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh. Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh. Batman! Come on. You have to know the original cartoon theme song to Batman, right? Well, if you didn’t, I won’t judge you and your lack of knowledge of everything DC Icons. But, no worries. Because Batman is back and in young adult form. That is, novel form.

Batman:Nightwalker by Marie Lu

Batman: Nightwalker
is a tale of a teenage Bruce Wayne before he become the infamous Batman. With a
compelling and unique take on young Bruce, Marie Lu tells of Bruce’s need to
solve the mystery gripping the city after a group calling themselves the
Nightwalkers target Gotham City’s rich and elite. After meeting with Madeleine,
a very intelligent young woman who happens to be an inmate at Arkham Asylum and
a central figure in the Nightwalkers, Bruce has to decide if he has what it
takes to save the city and himself.
I don’t know about you guys, but this is the first time I
have read anything following a younger version of Batman/Bruce Wayne. I think
knowing his story as he was younger gives his character so much more depth and
makes me want to go watch every movie I have seen of Batman to see how their
stories work together.
If you love heroes and amazing writing as much as I do, you
can get a copy of Batman: Nightwalker
in the January LitJoy Crate.
And the book is SIGNED by Marie Lu!!! Plus, Marie helped to pick all the items
that come with the box to make your super hero dreams come true.
