About this listen

To save the world, Sonya must become its greatest hero—and its darkest villain.

The opening of Pandora's Box changed the world, giving rise to an age of superhumans and monsters. Yet mankind was not safe from its own hubris, and in the end, it destroyed itself.

Sonya Chernovna returns to the past with a mysterious new ability that lets her absorb powers, combine them, and even bestow them onto others. It's a power with near limitless potential.

She must manipulate heroes and villains alike, playing both sides while keeping her identities secret. As her power grows, so does the weight of her decisions—and the line between her identities blurs.

She'll do whatever it takes to rewrite humanity's ending—even if it means being the most heinous villain that ever lived.

So much better than i expected!!!

As a general rule, I have never really liked Villain stories or even particularly dark anti hero stories. To much edge lord crap and not nearly enough substance. So when i read the synopsis of this story i kind of expected to hate it, but i had some time i needed to kill so i figured i would listen get anoyed, quit, and then write another scathing review about another anti social sociopath who thinks playing video games makes them some kind of secret super genius or what ever. INSTEAD of all of that i got probably one of the most compelling and nuanced MC's i have come across in a VERY long time. The characters are smart, the world building is extensive, and the plot is nail bitingly intense. I was truely shocked by this story, so much so that i listened to it twice in a row just to see if i was hulicinating or something. Thankfully i was not and this story is so much better than i expected. Looking forward to seeing more.

Endearing

I actually exclaimed out loud, “I love this book,” when the credits rolled. I’ll be tearing my hair out waiting for the next. I can’t think of anything I didn’t like.

phenomenal

Really enjoyed this book. It's got such a satisfying and intriguing hook and it continues to pay off as it continues. I love this post hero world that's been created. The posing and the politics are just fascinating to watch play out. Audio reader is fantastic too. Such an easy binge. Highly recommend this book. Can't wait for the next!
