A shadowy group of ordinary humans who spend their lives studying powerful Epics, finding their weaknesses, then assassinating them. It is said no bullet can harm him, no sword can split his skin, no explosion can burn him. Steelheart has the strength of ten men and can control the elements. Here, in the city once known as Chicago, an extraordinarily powerful Epic declared himself Emperor. I’ll let the book description take it from here:Įvery single person who manifested powers-we call them Epics-turned out to be evil. The story takes place in a near-future apocalyptic world ruled by a small number of supervillains, all of whom started out as ordinary people but gained incredible powers following the sudden appearance of a strange red object in the sky known as The Calamity. As a fan of sci-fi, superhero stories, and yes, young adult fiction - hi Harry Potter and Percy Jackson - this had my name written all over it. I just finished reading Steelheart, the first book of Brandon Sanderson’s young adult trilogy, The Reckoners.
