Reviews

In a vividly dark and fully imagined universe where special abilities are feared unless they can be strictly controlled and labeled, Meyer celebrates and subverts popular superhero tropes while mining the gray area between malevolence and virtue. Third-person narration builds suspense as it shifts between Nova and Adrian, a Renegade with his own secrets; the worldbuilding details and many combat sequences will captivate devotees of superhero comics. Beyond the capes and masks is a strikingly grounded story of star-crossed would-be lovers, deception, and the recognition that most of humanity exists between the extremes of good and evil
Tackles a familiar genre in a brand new way
A fully realized new world with compelling characters and just enough edge-of-your-seat action to rival the biggest on-screen adaptation?
Even reluctant fans of hero fantasies will fall for the smart plot and wonderful world-building. Prepare to fangirl
