Synopsis

Three years after the showdown with Finch razed their hometown of Freepoint and changed their lives forever, Phillip and the rest of The Ables gang find another school year interrupted by a growing threat.

Relations with the government have never been more strained and the political rhetoric has shifted to a more hostile tone when discussing those with special abilities. A new branch of Homeland Security has been empowered to investigate custodial acts of heroism and even detain suspects indefinitely. While juggling his leadership responsibilities over the dozens of Ables members, a new crush, and a growing anxiety problem . . . Phillip will have to decide how much of The Ables' time will be spent training for simulation games and how much will be spent stepping into the real-world crime-fighting holes created by the custodians that have disappeared—presumed to be imprisoned or worse. Confronted with a mysterious new villain wielding a previously unknown power, Phillip, Bentley, and Henry will be forced to stretch their abilities and their bonds further than ever before.

This hurts... This is probably one of the more frustrating cases of a sequel not meeting the somewhat high bar of expectations set by its predecessor. What does the bar look like from the first book? A fresh take on the superhero genre and the tropes that come with it? Superpowers meet disabilities,......more

Goodreads review by Bree on April 04, 2020

I'm not even sure where to start with this review. Perhaps it is in the "why would you read the second book if the first one was SO terrible" spot? Or, if there's a mysterious new superpower for our villain and it's crazy mysterious, how about DON'T USE THE TITLE TO GIVE IT AWAY??? Maybe it's an ending......more

Goodreads review by Emily on January 13, 2020

So SO good. I can see just how much the author loves these characters in how he writes them. They’re real, they struggle, and they don’t get everything right. But they’re still human, and even through their mistakes, they’re capable of love and being loved. On a more personal level, in the few days i......more

Yes it’s an interesting take on a superhero. But my favorite part is how normal going to therapy after traumatic events is treated.......more
