Know More
Alicia McTravers, a young and violent pyrokinetic, is carving a bloody path of revenge through the city. By chance, she meets Violet, her opposite, employed as a ‘superhero’ by the government. Attempting to overcome their animosity, they start to suspect that seemingly random events are anything but. Alicia has forgotten something important; knowledge that may well prevent the apocalypse. Something evil is waking up, and time is running out.
*NOTE: This is PROSE not a GRAPHIC NOVEL!*
A Word from the Author
With ‘Alicia’, my first novel, I hoped to write superhero fiction that featured strong female main characters, complex relationships and just the right amount of apocalyptic superpowers. As part of a larger shared universe (with a third book on the way) I hope to bring superhero prose to readers who may not have considered it before, and to provide a fresh take in a world where there are a lot of superhero stories, both on screen and in print. I was inspired by my love for comics, the cosmic insanity of H.P. Lovecraft and my fantastically geeky children, and I hope you enjoy the stories!
