## Description

THE THRILLING, ACERBIC AND HILARIOUS NOVEL FROM THE AUTHOR OF SOON I WILL BE INVINCIBLE ' The Avengers meets The Breakfast Club… wry and engaging ' James Swallow, Sunday Times bestselling author of Nomad ' A spiky, fierce, erudite riff on the wonderful world of silver age superheroes ' Charles Stross, bestselling author of The Atrocity Archives ---- Middle-aged English professor Dr Rick Tower has a secret. As a teen he was Prodigy – a kickass superhero. He was given and wielded mysterious powers. And as part of a superteam, he beat up bad guys. They were gods – worshipped and feared. Naturally, the government shut them down. Now Rick’s in hiding, supposedly living a normal life. Promising to never use his powers again. Forgotten. Washed up. A no one. Until the summons puts the gang back together – to solve a disappearance from their past. For superbeings, it should be easy. But when have gods ever followed orders . . . ---- 'Hugely enjoyable… kept me up till 3am' Conn Iggulden, Sunday Times bestselling author of Lion ‘ Combining a coming-of-age story with costume thrills . . . it has sly, smart things to say’ Herald ' Fight Me embraces the fun of the genre, while treating its battle-weary characters with heart and empathy. A noir-tinged Big Chill for the superhero set' Bob Proehl, author of The Nobody People ‘A treasure that manages to be sad, funny, and hilariously fun at all once . A thrilling adventure but also a searing, intimate look at what it would really cost to have such incredible power, and yet still be human’ Peng Shepherd , bestselling author of The Cartographers 'There is a vibrancy to the writing, and a beating heart, reminiscent of my favourite coming-of-age novels' Nick Cutter 'A sucker-punch of sheer delight, and couldn't be happier to be on the receiving end' Adam Christopher
