About the Book

For decades the Super Squad has defended Super City, and the world, from threats large and small. While membership has evolved over the years, Captain Awesome, the world's most powerful hero, has always been a key member.

Now, a new villain has arrived. He isn't intent on control or riches, his goals are personal, and he forces Awesome to look closely at the choices between good and evil, with the fate of the city, and the Squad, in the balance.

Review (Excerpts)


- "The Fall of Awesome is a fun romp through the often-overlooked world of superhero fiction. TFoA takes a look at a regular person's foibles when he is given super-human abilities. This once-ordinary guy is now the world's most powerful being - or so it appears - and his facade of super heroism is cracking. This super being is susceptible to the same very human traits as you and me; jealousy, anger, disappointment, temptation, greed, and employing and falling prey to deception. When a being has all the power he wants and is generally known for doing Good... what becomes of him when he harbors all those terrible Human emotions? The Fall tells the story of Awesome's descent into normalcy amidst a very strange and dangerous assault on his city by a new bad guy, seemingly bent on the takedown of all the heroic Supers in the city.[...]" - Chris Hornberger
