Description: Having a superpower is ordinary. Your Power determines your entire life. But 17-year-old Ugene is Powerless. He can’t read minds or enhance his strength. He can’t manipulate natural matter or heal injuries. Determined to find out why he is different, Ugene submits himself as a test subject at Paragon. But nothing is as it seems. All exits from the testing floor are sealed. Subjects endure brutal and sometimes deadly injuries. No amount of power can save them. When his new friend Jade disappears, Ugene is shocked to discover why so many test subjects vanish without a trace. Now, Ugene must choose between his own preservation . . . or the lives of countless other test subjects.

Author · 14 books

Award-winning author Starr Z. Davies is a Wisconsin native. From a young age, Starr has been obsessed with superheroes like Batman and Captain America, which inspired her debut novel, Ordinary. If Starr had a superpower, she would be an Empath, because she is an emotional sponge and easily relates to how others are feeling. Years ago, Starr earned the nickname "Character Assassin" because she had a habit of utterly destroying her characters—physically and emotionally. It's a badge she wears with honor. Daughter of the Yellow Dragon, the first book in the Fractured Empire Saga, won the 2021 Pinnacle Achievement Award for outstanding historical fiction. If you want to get to know her, you can join her secret Assassins' Guild: https://www.facebook.com/groups/autho... You can follow Starr online: https://linktr.ee/SZDavies
