The Pretender: Rebirth by Steven Long Mitchell & Craig W. Van Sickle

 

The Pretender: Rebirth by Steven Long Mitchell & Craig W. Van Sickle, 276 pages

Pretenders are geniuses, human chameleons who become anyone they want to be: marine biologist, pilot, surgeon.  When One escapes 

This is the first novel in a sort-of-not-really reboot of the Pretender tv show. Personally, the novel feels at once both overdrawn and vague. Had I not been familiar with the show, I would have been unpleasantly lost. Also worth noting that the best written woman in the book was actually a drag queen named Chazz. It was an interesting, smooth read, but it didn't leave me reaching for the sequel.
