Wildcard- Heir to the Ring: Book 1

By William Edward Greene

The League built heroes.
They also built lies.

When Jack Dunland inherits his father's mysterious power ring, he becomes something the city of Orion hasn't seen in years-a hero the League doesn't control. But the ring isn't just technology. It remembers. It feels. And it knows the truth about what really happened to its former bearer-Protean, the world's greatest hero...and Jack's father.

As Jack takes up the name Wildcard and begins defending the forgotten districts the League abandoned, his defiance ignites a revolution. Branded a criminal, hunted by the same heroes he once admired, Jack discovers the League will stop at nothing to bury its secrets-including the murder of its own legend.

Now the city is burning, the people are rising, and every power-political, technological, and human-is turning against him.
But a hero isn't someone the world chooses.
A hero is someone who chooses anyway.

The truth can't be erased. The spark has already lit the fire.
