About this listen

The world’s only superhero was discovered in 1969. No others were ever found. Until now.

With Station destroyed and their friends dead, might Daniel and Abos finally be allowed some peace? Yeah, right.

Daniel’s talents are needed by a UN department taking on the bad guys, including rogue halfheroes. Abos is searching for more of her species. She soon finds she’s not the only one looking. There’s a new threat that no one saw coming. And halfheroes are being targeted.

When Daniel goes missing, it’s down to Abos to find out what’s going on and try to stop it. Her only chance of success means risking everything she’s gained since she stopped being The Deterrent.

Meanwhile, Daniel’s staging a breakout from the most secure prison ever built, but what’s waiting for him is even worse. It’s time for Daniel to find out if he’s a halfhero or a real hero.

i have been well and truly sucked in to the ABOS Universe, it's a unique perspective on super heroes with excellent characters, i am disappointed that Cressida is no longer part of the story as I really liked her character. looking forward to the third part 👍👍👍

exceptionally interesting & a great story

great read!

We all have different preferences and Sainsbury's writing is exactly what I like. Good characters that narrate well, a well balanced story and good narration. Would thoroughly recommend (if you like what I like!).

Just my kind of story!

Fixed pretty much everything I didn’t like in the first book. I think that if you liked the first, you'll love this.

Loved it

Good second installment. Well thought out main protagonist. Interesting back story. Did lack some action and the Halfheroes themselves were underutilised as a force. I am looking forward to finding out how the trilogy ends!

pretty good!

A slight sense of the 'middle book' dip, but I can’t mark that down; it’s in the psychology of the reader - not the author - to be ‘over’ the novelty of book 1 and be anticipating book 3...

I raved about book 1 and I have to say the story has developed very well, not trapped in the premise that established the story so far. Good plot turns and such massive swings of gain and loss make this both a progression and a great story in its own right. Characters old an new are all welcome and well formed, balanced action ‘scenes’ and ‘plot’ scenes.

Narration continues to be underplayed but appropriate with distinctive personality given to the characters.

One technical note; there seems to be a bit of premature cut-off at the end of a lot of the sentences in stretches (missing the last few sounds like the ‘s’ in plurals. I’ll tag some bookmarks and report this to Audible but it didn’t detract too much. Just weird.

A good ‘Book 2’ for a trilogy

Really enjoyed the story, absolutely steamed through it

Unfortunately, and this may have been isolated to me, it seemed that during editing a lot of words ended up being clipped incomplete. It was often enough to become bloody irritating and I can only assume someone did a poor job splicing all the audio recording together. I hope if you listen your experience is different

Fun continuation but odd editting issues

I loved listening to this second half hero book and didn't want it to end . Great narration again. Thoroughly recommended! I'm already looking forward to the next book in this trilogy.

Another winner
