About this listen
Two teenagers fight for their place in a world where everybody has powers—and the fate of humanity may be in their hands—in this original superhero series.
On July 6, 1963, human history was forever altered. From the depths of space, a golden wave of light bathed everyone on Earth in rays that rendered them unconscious. Six days later, five billion people awakened with superpowers. For thirty-seven years now, superhumanity has managed to keep the peace. With some exceptions . . .
Matt Callaghan is a clairvoyant. Unfortunately, his uncanny talent for predicting the future has more to do with observation and psychology (read: lying) than actual superpowers. About to graduate from Northridge High, he still hasn’t developed any special abilities. And if the authorities discover the truth, Matt can safely predict he’ll be locked up as a scientific curiosity.
Jane Walker is an Empath, feared and hated for her ability to assume other people’s powers by touching them. Expelled from various high schools for fighting bullies with a dazzling array of formidable abilities of their own, she’s determined to prove her worth and join the legendary Legion of Heroes.
Tasked with employing his “clairvoyance” to monitor his new classmate, Matt must juggle protecting his secret inability and keeping Jane and his friends from killing each other. And when the Legion of Heroes offers Matt a place in their academy, his attempt to play off the organization’s history backfires into Jane getting accepted as well.
As Matt bluffs his way through evaluation and Jane battles for her very life, the pair will soon learn the Legion’s true agenda is far from altruistic—and even farther from heroic...
The first volume of the hit alternate-history series—with more than a million views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Delighted by Superworld, looking forward to more.
When Superworld appeared in my suggested for you list on my kindle, the cover art caught my eye. I decided to take a look at the blurb.
Sounds great I thought, I'll just send myself a sample to read to see if I like it.... and then I noticed the audio sample button.
of course I promptly tapped on that instead and with that out flowed the voice of Luke Daniels narrating. A voice I know well from Marko Kloos Frontlines series (8 books as of 30th August 2022)
So with that I promptly brought both kindle & audio books.
Finished the audio book at 1.30am, there was no way I was putting it down until I'd finished it.
What a delight, I'd found a new series to read and another author to follow.
Highly recommended

Fantastic new “Superworld “
Yep .. my son is the author and I’ve been reading this book again and again since his first draft 4 years ago, so I’m going to biased . But this is the first time I have listened to it and it just impressed me all over again . The premise is interesting, the characters engaging, the dialogue funny and the action scenes tense . It is tightly and well written . It is a fun read and an exciting ride !

Very reminiscent of Drews Hayes super powdered.
it has a strong feel of that book, but that's one of my favorites, so not a bad thing. It's different at the same time, and I'm looking forward to where the series is going.

what a jem
I picked this one up because it looked interesting, and it had an amusing dad review. Little did I know this would be a marathon listen because it's a fantastic audio book!
The reader starts off a little awkward with the voices but settles into it after a bit and the flow becomes a lot more natural and easy listening.
The story was well written and engaging as heck, and at some point there are fauna being drugged by a rogue student.
11/10 I hope the next one doesn't take 4 years

Started with a good concept but then
Unfortunately not my type of listening - it spiralled into a frat house of extenuating uninteresting story telling.
