These Epics possess extraordinary abilities, but instead of using their powers for good, they have become tyrannical rulers over mankind. With immense power comes an insatiable thirst for control, and the Epics will stop at nothing to crush the wills of the people they dominate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe only resistance against the Epics lies with the Reckoners, a covert group of ordinary humans dedicated to studying these superpowered villains, uncovering their weaknesses, and assassinating them. Despite the overwhelming dangers, the Reckoners persist in their mission, driven by a deep sense of justice and a relentless determination to rid the world of these malevolent rulers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAmong those yearning to join the Reckoners is David, a young man whose life was irreversibly changed by the Epics. He witnessed the murder of his father at the hands of Steelheart, one of the most powerful and seemingly invincible Epics. For years, David has meticulously studied Steelheart, learning everything he can about the tyrant who snatched away his family and future. Unlike anyone else, David holds a crucial piece of knowledge that could be the key to Steelheart's defeat—a vital experience that he believes will tip the scales in the Reckoners' favour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDavid's singular encounter with Steelheart did more than instil a burning desire for revenge; it provided him with invaluable insights that may finally expose the Epic's vulnerability. Armed with this knowledge and his unwavering resolve, David seeks to align himself with the Reckoners, determined to bring down the man who once seemed unassailable. In a world ruled by fear and oppression, \u003cem\u003eSteelheart\u003c\/em\u003e is a gripping tale of vengeance, heroism, and the quest to reclaim freedom from the clutches of seemingly indomitable oppressors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette New Zealand Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45713280565484,"sku":"9780575104044","price":24.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780575104044.jpg?v=1725995127","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/steelheart","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
