About this listen
"False prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead many astray."
One year has passed since Dr. Newton and Magneteer took their fight to the streets. Lives were lost. The damage incalculable.
The public demands answers.
But with Newton incarcerated and Magneteer on the run, Cameron and Rebecca are left to pick up the pieces.
If they can't appease the citizens they swore to protect, the Newton Force is no more.
Further complicating matters is the arrival of two new superheroes calling themselves the Legion of Liberty.
Filling the void left vacant by the Newton Force, it doesn't take long for the Legion of Liberty to win the public over.
Newly appointed to the Department of Superhuman Affairs, Agents Malcolm Mills and Catherine Gibbs are tasked with finding out who the new superheroes are and where they came from.
What they discover could usher in a new age of superheroes...and the downfall of the Newton Force.
False Prophets is the exciting second installment in The False Idols Saga.

When out-of-shape IT technician Roen wakes up and starts hearing voices in his head, he naturally assumes he’s losing it. He isn’t. As of last night, he has a passenger in his brain - an ancient alien life-form called Tao, whose race crash-landed on Earth before the first fish crawled out of the oceans. Over the millennia his people have trained human heroes to be great leaders, to advance our species at a rate far beyond what it would have achieved on its own. Split into two opposing factions - the peace-loving, but under-represented Prophus, and the savage, powerful Genjix - the aliens have been in a state of civil war for centuries.

The job was simple: decapitate the zombie, get paid, get out. Warlock Marcus Shifter followed the plan perfectly. The corpse, however, did not. Now there's a body on the loose, accusations of illegal necromancy are flying, and the answers are waiting in the perilous alleys between the mortal and paranormal worlds. They're no place for someone who mostly gave up magic after a childhood accident. And given his tendency to shoot off his mouth and his Glock, Marcus is having a hell of a time digging up more than just bodies. When an apocalypse-minded megalomaniac threatens Marcus's family, things get personal.

Story
Ferryman Charlie Dawson saves dead people - somebody has to convince them to move on to the afterlife, after all. Having never failed a single assignment, he's acquired a reputation for success that's as legendary as it is unwanted. It turns out that serving as a Ferryman is causing Charlie to slowly lose his mind. Deemed too valuable by the Ferryman Institute to be let go and too stubborn to just give up in his own right, Charlie's pretty much abandoned all hope of escaping his grim existence. Or he had, anyway, until he saved Alice Spiegel.

Story
When out-of-shape IT technician Roen wakes up and starts hearing voices in his head, he naturally assumes he’s losing it. He isn’t. As of last night, he has a passenger in his brain - an ancient alien life-form called Tao, whose race crash-landed on Earth before the first fish crawled out of the oceans. Over the millennia his people have trained human heroes to be great leaders, to advance our species at a rate far beyond what it would have achieved on its own. Split into two opposing factions - the peace-loving, but under-represented Prophus, and the savage, powerful Genjix - the aliens have been in a state of civil war for centuries.

When a series of bad decisions leads Teddy to a run-in with the police, a mysterious stranger intervenes. He invites her to apply to the School for Psychics, a facility hidden off the coast of San Francisco where students are trained like Delta Force operatives: It’s competitive, cutthroat, and highly secretive.

Story
From Dan Wells, author of the New York Times best-selling Partials Sequence, comes the first book in a new sci-fi-noir series. Los Angeles in 2050 is a city of open doors, as long as you have the right connections. That connection is a djinni - a smart device implanted right in a person's head. In a world where virtually everyone is online 24 hours a day, this connection is like oxygen - and a world like that presents plenty of opportunities for someone who knows how to manipulate it.

Talk about upping the stakes!
I enjoyed this book more than the first one, but just like the first one it was predictable. However, by this point I just really love the characters and go along for the ride, much like binge-watching a TV show. I am ready for more adventures... and there are clearly more to come.
This books took the stakes from the last book and turned up the dial just enough to make it harder and different, but not so much that the future of this series has nowhere to go. It's a fine line, but well done! I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good, fun-loving superhero story.
