Publisher Description: *NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* "Readers won't be able to put down this dark and riveting tale of power and revenge."--Kirkus Reviews, starred Praise for Vicious "Schwab's characters feel vital and real, never reduced to simple archetypes...In a genre that tends toward the flippant or pretentious, this is a rare superhero novel as epic and gripping as any classic comic. Schwab's tale of betrayal, self-hatred, and survival will resonate with superhero fans as well as readers who have never heard of Charles Xavier or Victor von Doom."--Publishers Weekly (starred review) V. E. Schwab's Vicious is the superhero novel I've been waiting for: fresh, merciless, and yes, vicious. Wow.--Mira Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Blackout Villians #1 Vicious #2 Vengeful Warm Up (short story) |
