Gifted with meta-human powers in a world full of capes and villains, Tori Rivas kept away from the limelight, preferring to work as a thief in the shadows. But when she's captured trying to rob a vault that belongs to a secret guild of villains, she's offered a hard choice: prove she has what it takes to join them or be eliminated.

Apprenticed to one of the world's most powerful (and supposedly dead) villains, she is thrust into a strange world where the lines that divide superheroes and criminals are more complex than they seem. The education of a villain is not an easy one, and Tori will have to learn quickly if she wants to survive. On top of the peril she faces from her own teacher, there are also the capes and fellow apprentices to worry about, to say nothing of having to keep up a civilian cover.

Most dangerous of all, though, are those who loathe the guild's very existence. Old grudges mean some are willing to go to any length to see the guild turned to ash, along with each one of its members. Even the lowly apprentices.

I did love this story and I'm looking forward to the next book. At times it felt more like a TV show with it's moving POVs. When first listening thought it would be a negative against the book but it was not. Though, I would warn that there are a lot of characters. For me they each felt different and I was able to keep them apart but it would have been nice to have a character list.

I am sure this is a beginning of a series. It was the usually parade of super heroes in training. The characters were interesting and the story line interesting. Amy Landon does a great narration!!!!

Interesting characters

The book is about a (sort of) villian taking her first steps. The story is original and well told. The multiple PoVs are handled perfectly (I usually prefer single PoV, but this is an exception), and pretty much all the characters are interesting.

What I'm not a fan of is that this it not progression fantasy - character powers are pretty much static and they simply gain better control over time. Of course super genius develop new tech that can power them up, but the book never focused on this aspect, even for the main character. There is some slice of life and some adventures, but her training and development were skimmed over.

very good and original super hero story

There was a few times I thought the book was wrapping up. Then it just kept going. In a great way. I feel like I got a few really well written and narrated books for a steal!! I'm jumping straight to the second book.

AWESOME!!
