A Beautiful Gory Display – Kickstart’s BOOK OF LILAH and WARD 6

Of course, even at my jaded age, I had a lot of fun with Book of Lilah.  The titular Lilah is a college student who ends up with a very important book after bumping into a shady fellow in the library.  The book basically turns her into the Beautiful Mind guy.  She figures out “Particle Physics.  Entropy.  Electromagnetism.  The Colonel’s Secret Recipe” before declaring she needs “a new math”.  She reads every book on the shelf and discovers that she’s fluent in French.  (So fluent, in fact, she doesn’t even realize that she isn’t speaking English.)  And when she manages to accidentally cross the Atlantic Ocean without ever leaving the library, she comes to the attention of two different organizations.
