Publisher's Summary
Danny Tozer has a problem: She just inherited the powers of Dreadnought, the world's greatest superhero. Until Dreadnought fell out of the sky and died right in front of her, Danny was trying to keep people from finding out she's transgender. But before he expired, Dreadnought passed his mantle to her, and those secondhand superpowers transformed Danny's body into what she's always thought it should be. Now there's no hiding that she's a girl.
It should be the happiest time of her life, but Danny's first weeks finally living in a body that fits her are more difficult and complicated than she could have imagined. Between her father's dangerous obsession with "curing" her girlhood, her best friend suddenly acting like he's entitled to date her, and her fellow superheroes arguing over her place in their ranks, Danny feels like she's in over her head.
She doesn't have time to adjust. Dreadnought's murderer - a cyborg named Utopia - still haunts the streets of New Port City, threatening destruction. If Danny can't sort through the confusion of coming out, master her powers, and stop Utopia in time, humanity faces extinction.

Superhero more like super book.
Everything I could’ve wished for and more as a trans superhero story. Insightful and illuminating but also realistic and vulnerable. The genuine care for the characters and the ideas shine over the couple of hiccups that only serve to make it feel all the more human.

My heart
YA even adults can enjoy. A window into the trans* experience and in my mind trans * ppl are superhero’s. Emotional and not too fluffy.

First Transgender Read
This was my first foray into the field of 'superhero' books. Honestly, this was a fun read. It was also my first trans read, and I think it was delivered in a really cool way that fits so well with the genre. Overall, this book helped me understand how it can feel to be trans. April Daniels' writing was transporting, and I felt totally immersed in the experience of the story.

My new favourite series
As a trans woman, this book resonated with me in a deep and indescribable way. The author explores Danny's journey in such an exciting and authentic way.
As far as superhero novels go, this series is fantastic! April Daniels manages to play with superhero genre tropes in a lovingly new way, giving this book all of the flair and excitement of your classic superhero stories but with its own unique, refreshing and surprising flavour.
Please check this series out and support the author!! You won't regret it!

struggled with some of the narration being a bit OTT. great storyline and queer representation. would be great for a young Trans person to read and feel like a superhero :)
