Powerless: A Superhero Box Set (Books 1-3) Kindle Edition

by Tony Cooper (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 out of 5 stars 5 ratings
This box set includes the first three books in the POWERLESS superhero series from Tony Cooper, and features over 600 pages of dark drama, and fantastic fights. 1. POWERLESS: A SUPERHERO NOVEL - When the friend of a retired superhero is killed by another power, he drags himself out of his self-imposed isolation to find out who is responsible. He soon finds himself digging up a past he would rather forget, risking exposing the secret of why his team split, and destroying all their lives. 2. KILLING GODS - When a physically mutated villain's son goes missing from protective care, he goes on a rampage to try and find his child. In his way stand a Child Protection Officer following her heart above her duty, a violent anti-hero group desperate for media attention, a seemingly benevolent hero-worshipping cult and Martin and Hayley struggling to work out who they can trust. 3. DIE FAMOUS - Ruth doesn't want to be famous, she just wants to be seen and accepted for who she is. And she is prepared to defy her father to take part in a Hero talent show to create a new team for Element City. However she doesn't count on a team of villains from the 1970s waking themselves up in order to bring Havoc to the present day. Neither do Martin and Hayley, who inadvertently stumble upon their plot and find themselves risking their lives to save the villain's ultimate target: the TV show's contestants. *** What reviewers are saying about the POWERLESS series: ★★★★★ "I really enjoyed the world-building; the split focus between two time periods; the sense of dread in the second half as things turn towards the tragic; and the way the finale plays out was something I didn't see coming" - Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★ "More Dark Knight and Watchmen than Marvel Cinematic Universe." - Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★ "This story and characters are amazing, and there are some great plot twists." - Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★ "Brilliant writing, wonderfully flawed heroes and great story lines." - Amazon Reviewer

    5.0 out of 5 stars Powerless is very Powerful reading
    Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2021
    A wonderful Powerful grimdark superhero story.
    1. All the characters have their own desires, goals, history, and decisions. Amazingly well-done character developments throughout - with more than one character having an arc in every book of the series.
    2. The world changes over time - the 70's is different from the 80's which is different from now.
    3. Worldbuilding goes down layers - with lawyers, religion, wars, even child services, impacted by being Powered and not Powered.
    4. Each book has MULTIPLE plotlines.
    5. Not all pieces are tied up neatly at the end of each book - the world is messy, the endings aren't HEA.
    6. Things are dark, there are multiple things which can set off Triggers, especially in the first book. (There is a reason why Martin, the main character, suffers from PTSD - and with the flashbacks, you live through it with him. The bad guy in the first book is a Bad Guy.)

    Amazing storytelling.
