By Michael Feng

Book Overview

The birth of a not-so-super superhero!

Jacen Lee. A malevolent mastermind with the key to reshaping the human genome. The secret agents of SHRIKE have stood up against him for many years, and now, they are on the brink of losing. There is one last hope for them-one last chance, and that is to find someone whose power can compete with the formidable forces of Lee.

However, that someone comes in the very unexpected form of civilian biologist Ranford Tremble, who does not wish to save the world or uphold justice. He only wants to lead a normal, peaceful life. Unluckily for him, fate decides otherwise. After getting attacked by a giant lion and involved in a strange experiment, he begins to speculate about what lies beneath the surface of people's everyday lives. Multiple choices branch out in front of him. He must choose cautiously, for each decision will alter his course drastically.

While he is facing the dilemma of whether to keep his carefree lifestyle or become something greater, Lee is moving toward the darkest, most sinister phase of his plan. Will Ranford be able to escape the mighty hand of Jacen Lee?
