THE THRILLING, ACERBIC AND HILARIOUS NOVEL FROM THE AUTHOR OF SOON I WILL BE INVINCIBLE

'The Avengers meets The Breakfast Club... wry and engaging' James Swallow, Sunday Times bestselling author of Nomad

----

Middle-aged English professor Dr Rick Tower has a secret.

As a teen he was Prodigy - a kickass superhero.
He was given and wielded mysterious powers.

And as part of a superteam, he beat up bad guys.
They were gods - worshipped and feared.

Naturally, the government shut them down.

Now Rick's in hiding, supposedly living a normal life.
Promising to never use his powers again.

Forgotten. Washed up. A no one.

Until the summons puts the gang back together -
to solve a disappearance from their past.

For superbeings, it should be easy.

But when have gods ever followed orders...
