Days of Becoming: An X-Men Movieverse Novel by Talktooloose

Synopsis

A sudden increase in the manifestations of young mutants causes panic across America. Two young mutants, Bobby Drake and St. John Allerdyce follow very different and sometimes converging paths to adulthood. What do you believe in when everything you've trusted is gone? The action begins a year before X1 and finishes following X3.
