À propos de cet audio

 THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES!

DC Icons continues with the first-ever YA origin story of superhero Black Canary, from the internationally bestselling author Alexandra Monir. In this thrilling novel, Dinah Lance's voice is her weapon. And in a near-future world where women have no rights, she won't hesitate to use everything she has--including her song--to fight back.

Dinah Lance was eight years old when she overheard the impossible: the sound of a girl singing. It was something she was never meant to hear--not in her lifetime and not in Gotham City, taken over by the vicious, patriarchal Court of Owls. The sinister organization rules Gotham City as a dictatorship and has stripped women of everything--their right to work, to make music, to learn, to be free.

Now seventeen, Dinah can't forget that haunting sound, and she's beginning to discover that her own voice is just as powerful. But singing is forbidden--a one-way route to a certain death sentence. Fighting to balance her father's desire to keep her safe, a blossoming romance with mysterious new student Oliver Queen, and her own need to help other women and girls rise up, Dinah wonders if her song will finally be heard. And will her voice be powerful enough to destroy the Court of Owls once and for all? Fantastique Littérature Science-fiction et fantasy Situations difficiles Superhéros Fiction

The story wasn't terrible but it was pretty bland... having age old superheroes acting as if their futures rested on the shoulders of a feminist teenager... who... really lacks personality... is pretty classic... for a half assed book of this genre.

Dinah's personality is literally just made up of "I like music" and "life's not fair". These both make sense in the fascinating dystopian setting where the owls rule. It's just.... that is all there is to her. Dinah in the comics is witty, tough, and is far more resourceful. if her voice is taken out she finds a way to combat it She's ready to.

This iteration of her... teenage or not is so reliant on her voice... as if it's a hail Mary. I like that it's an inspiration to a cause but she's so much more than that. Her character is written as reactive and paper thin. I'm disappointed. Its not the worst book, for the world alone I'd recommend it. Just don't expect too much from the protagonist.

Story was a little bland.
