-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fifty years ago, the world was almost destroyed by a chemical war. Now the world is divided into the mutants and the pure. Mutants must fight for survival in a scarred landscape, while the privileged pure live out a life of disease-free perfection.Thirteen years ago, a covert government experimental facility was shut down and its residents killed. The secrets it held died with them. But five extraordinary kids survived.
Today four teenagers are about to discover that their mutant blood brings with it special powers. They are heading straight for Mutant City with rival factions close behind. One by one, they face the enemy. Together, they must stay alive .

Mutant City is the only book (out of all the
"mutant" books I've read) that I can say I and X-Men would approve
of. You know I take X-Men seriously and I do hate when anything is compared to
it because sometimes it's just offensive. Especially when the mutants are more
genetically enhanced with added powers but mostly look totally human and you
would never guess who they were (I'm talking to you Transparent.) And while in the Mutant City, some of the mutants are
exactly that, they can blend in, but there's something about them that tells
them away. But, there are also the full on mutants with appearances' compared
to Mystique and Beast. X-Men approves.
