Holden Collier hates superheroes. Unfortunately, he is one. Selfish, crass and intentionally anti-social, Holden avoids people at all costs until he is found by a clandestine group of hero collectors called “the syndicate”, who pit individuals like Holden against a cast of supervillains, all for sport. But there is an escape—an enigmatic figure called the lantern, who has the power to grant Holden his release from the syndicate. However, the freedom that the lantern offers is not what Holden expects. In reality, it’s much, much worse.
Part Time Superhero is a raunchy, mind-bending tale featuring a foul-mouthed, fourth-wall-breaking antihero, several “what the…?” twists and just a smidge of good, old-fashioned graphic violence. The book is in the same vein as the Deadpool movies and finishes with an Inception-style ending that will make the reader re-examine everything they thought they knew. Fans of The Reckoners series by Brandon Sanderson as well as superhero and comic book fans will enjoy this new, fast-paced novel. Chances are, you’ll read it all in one sitting!
