About this ebook
When Jet and Iridium - best friends turned enemies - came together to bring down a supervillain, they inadvertently destroyed the secret Corp-Co transmitter, whose frequency kept the New Chicago's heroes of in-line - and sane. Now the city is plunged into chaos as these heroes are suddenly the biggest threat. Corp-Co brings in a new Squadron from India - but when heroes are tied into a system of sponsorship, only money, and not a sense of duty, can persuade them to save the day.
As they haggle, Everyman sets out to destroy the powers with a group of enhanced super-soldiers, and the mysterious villain Doctor Hypnotic is lulling heroes and supervillains alike into his seductive web - a dream-world where everything is perfect, but nothing is real. Once again Jet and Iridium are forced to set aside their hatred of each other to do what they were born to do: save the world.

In a space where superhero content is now the norm and saturates television, film and literature it is rare to find something original and different. I like that there is no true hero or villain, just people. Yes, they are dealing with unusual circumstances but in a human way. The characters are inherently flawed but represent the human struggle and condition. Thoroughly enjoyed the two books. Still awaiting a follow up?!
