Dreadnought (Nemesis) (English Edition) Formato Kindle
A trans teen is transformed into a superhero in this action-packed series-starter perfect for fans of The Heroine Complex and Not Your Sidekick.
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.
“I didn’t know how much I needed this brave, thrilling book until it rocked my world. Dreadnought is the superhero adventure we all need right now.”—Charlie Jane Anders, author of All the Birds in the Sky
“A thoroughly enjoyable, emotionally rich, action-packed story with the most exciting new superheroes in decades. Unmissable.”—Kirkus Reviews- Età di lettura12 - 18 anni

Even my English makes little sense as I write this, cause I’m just overwhelmed: I’ll never forget this story. Ever.

Make no mistake, this story can get really dark in places. Like really dark. Some characters, and not just the villians, are downright evil, their views and actions toxic and destructive. And the events that transpire - ouch.
It is, though, also a well told and engrossing story. It pulls you in, makes you want to turn the page, see what happens next. It is the tale of Danny growing into her power, of grasping her future, but with all of the costs that come along with it. It is filled with as much action as angst and struggle.
It is a story that portrays much needed rep, a story that needs to be read. But just like what life can be at times, it isn't always easy. That doesn't make it any less good, and I'm looking forward to reading book 2.
That's not all it's got going for it though. The characters are great and diverse. The villains are hateable with no reservations, the heroes are for the most part good people who sometimes make mistakes and struggle with their flaws and the protagonist is the single most relateable character I have ever encountered in fiction (Is this what reading is like for cis-people? Lucky them.).
The story is interesting enough and works well with Danny's character development.
The only sore spots for me are that the action scenes lose me at times and that the first book doesn't really wrap up enough subplots to feel like a proper ending, which is why I think they should have been published together as one story, not two separate ones.
1. The action scenes sometimes used the same expressions over and over again, which could be a bit repetitive.
2. The ending felt a bit rushed, but a lot of things are still unresolved, so I'm guessing this is not the end.
tw: transphobia (a lot, so beware), homophobia, transphobic and homophobic slurs, mention of suicidal thoughts
