Wow! At first I was confused and didn't know what to make of Kaylee but I quickly got hooked on this one. Keep in mind that this is a 0.5 prequel to the regular series, so it's just a "sampling" of what's to come.  It may not make a whole lot of sense, but once you read book 1, you'll understand the reason for it.  Keep reading, give this series a chance, get to at least book 2 - you'll be hooked by then for sure!  I am definitely going to keep reading this series! Fascinating!
