I tossed this up on my blog as I was able to get my hands on the physical copy and look it over myself. I was one of the ones asked in this review what I thought about the art. And While the setting struck me as an interesting one. The Photography in place of art was oddly a huge issue for me like was noted here. Some of it came close to hitting the mark where the images were shopped to add Tech Elements to the picture. But others were so distracting it took me right out of the book.

Members of the Knightwatch have been hand-picked from individuals touched by the Flux, ironically gaining their abilities from the very force that also transforms innocent citizens into dangerous mutants and provides fascinating new resources for the mega-corps to exploit. Exactly how…
