Thom Creed is used to being on his own. Even as a high school basketball
star, he has to keep his distance because of his father. Hal Creed had
once been one of the greatest and most beloved superheroes of The
League-until the Wilson Towers incident. After that Thom's mother
disappeared and his proud father became an outcast.
The last thing in the world Thom would ever want is to disappoint his
father. So Thom keeps two secrets from him: First is that he's gay. The
second is that he has the power to heal people. Initially, Thom had
trouble controlling his powers. But with trail and error he improves,
until he gets so good that he catches the attention of the League and is
asked to join. Even though he knows it would kill his dad, Thom can't
resist. When he joins the League, he meets a motley crew of other heroes,
including tough-talking Scarlett, who has the power of fire from growing
up near a nuclear power plant; Typhoid Larry, who makes everyone sick by
touching them, but is actually a really sweet guy; and wise Ruth, who has
the power to see the future. Together these unlikely heroes become friends
and begin to uncover a plot to kill the superheroes. Along the way, Thom
falls in love, and discovers the difficult truth about his parents' past.
This is moving, funny, and wonderfully original novel shows that things
are not always what they seem, and love can be found in the
unlikeliest of places. Young Adult.
