About this listen

Simon Emerson is a regular, suburban, out-of-work 30-something guy. But then he is mortally injured in a terrorist bombing on the London Underground. Afterward, he discovers he has superhuman abilities. Simon quickly transforms from a nobody to the most powerful person on the planet.

Forced to navigate life with his newfound powers, he discovers the police investigating the attack are suspicious of him, but that is the least of his worries. Simon’s most significant challenge lies ahead. He’s not the only one with incredible abilities. Simon has questions, and his search for answers takes him across the globe to find the mysterious man who gave him his powers.

The Underground terrorist is still on the loose and Simon must learn to control his powers fast before his greatest power becomes his greatest weakness.

Simon has been chosen to be a hero. Will he step up?

I first read the ebook & enjoyed it so much I have the audiobook. The first in a fantastic series that should be read or listened to in full.

Fantastic story that deserves to be have all titles in the series listened to.

I had a feeling I would enjoy this book, but I didn’t expect to enjoy it quite as much as I did. Much of the story is revealed in the second person narrative, very much putting the reader into the role of the main protagonist, and it worked really well. Although I have the Kindle book, I actually listened to the audio version. I wasn’t sure about the narrator to start with, and probably wouldn’t specifically look for other books narrated by him, but I do think that he worked really well for the voice of Simon, making the story fun and quirky at times, yet serious or sexy when the story needed it. I’m glad I have books 2 and 3 to dive straight into

Enjoyable superhero romp

Simon is just an ordinary guy. On his way home from an interview he gets caught up in a terrorist bombing on the London Underground, but survives and manages to rescue some of the passengers before the roof caves in on top of him putting him in a coma.

Much to his wife Vasia's relief, he wakes up and soon discovers that he has superpowers. He has visions of terrible events before they occur and any wounds he endures heal quickly.

Join Simon as he tries to discover what has happened to him, whilst trying to escape from mysterious enemies. What other disasters lie in wait? Can he can stop them in time?

An excellent listen for superhero lovers and I loved the narration, Field's voice really matched the mood of the story and I hope he'll narrate the next audiobooks in the series.

I was given a promo code to listen to this audiobook and leave a review.

A fast-paced, unique story with lots of action and adventure, very well narrated by Steve Field.

A review copy of this book was sent to me by the author. All of the above opinions are my own.

Unique story.
