About this listen
Randold, better known as Rand, was no ordinary individual. Despite his best efforts, he possessed an extraordinary secret—he was a Super. Well, technically speaking, he belonged to that exceptional group, but he concealed his true nature from the world. For Rand possessed a remarkable ability to manipulate all forms of energy, even the Superpowers of others, a power that, if discovered, would undoubtedly land him in dire trouble with the government. The consequences ranged from imprisonment to something far worse.
But the weight of responsibility rested heavily on Rand's shoulders, a burden he never asked for. He had never aspired to be a Super; all he desired was a simple, ordinary life. His dreams revolved around attending university, graduating, and securing a decent job in the world of business. Saving the world was not part of his grand plan.
The existence of Supers had been a reality for over two decades. It all began with the dramatic entrance of a Supervillain, shattering the tranquility of the world. However, their reign was short-lived, swiftly countered by the arrival of a courageous Superhero within a week. From that point forward, the world underwent a metamorphosis, forever altered by the presence of these extraordinary beings.
It wasn't just the human population that experienced transformation; even animals underwent bewildering mutations, transforming into monstrous creatures. Even seemingly harmless creatures like rabbits had evolved into formidable level-two threats. An average human being was classified as a level-one entity, whereas Supers spanned a spectrum of power, ranging from level three to the awe-inspiring Titan and Dragon threat levels. In the face of such cataclysmic changes, humanity sought refuge in fortified City-States. Rand resided in one of the larger cities along the eastern coast, aptly named New San Diago.
However, everything changed on one fateful day when Rand found himself saving what he had initially assumed to be an ordinary human girl. From that moment onward, his life veered onto an irreversible path, leaving him uncertain if the consequences would be favorable or not. Concealing his identity as one of the most powerful Supers in the world became an even greater challenge, as the act of rescuing a single girl posed a threat to exposing his closely guarded secret.
Embark on Rand's journey as he grapples with the immense task of controlling his powers while navigating the treacherous path of secrecy. His quest is not only to hide his true nature from his newfound friends but also from other Supers who may be lurking in the shadows. Will he successfully strike a delicate balance, or will his remarkable abilities lead to an unmasking that could forever alter his destiny? Join Rand as he faces these trials and tribulations, where the stakes are high, and the world of Supers is fraught with peril.

Need more to reed
love the idea of the power system and that the main character is a bit different from all that are like him. have good fight sceens and a good amount of romance. the nerator made the listen very ingaging. I might just want more to read but I felt that the book finished prematurely (didn't feel like a cliff hanga, just didn't feel like it was the right time to finish). can't wait for book to to be made into an audio book.

This is a mimicking another better book.
This is not 5 star no where close. Two action scenes if that even then they finish in a chapter main guy has the best luck in the world with friend's that are billionaires that give him alot of free stuff. This book is a slice of life if anything with little action. If you want a better book to listen to that out dose this book and what this book Mimics that would be Saving Supervillains by Bruce Sentar. Don't believe me go but that book listen to it and get to book 2 or 3 cause that has the dangerous fruit part and then come back to this book. So up to you but Considering Bruce's books came out first comparing them side but side Saving supervillains is way better since this book Mimics that. Otherwise this is a slice of life it dose stand on its own in some ways but not a 5 star rating way.

Great start to and interesting story.
I must say I am surprised on how intracellular I was with the storyline.
the plot has hit some good points and I am looking forward to the next instalment.
I would suggest to make some screens more detailed instead of bypassing them (who doesn't like spice)
besides that I have nothing negative to say about it at all.
keep up the great work.
