After being spotted on security cameras and thrust into the national spotlight, he is pursued by both the media and powerful new enemies. Little does the world know the Outlaw is just High School junior Chase Jackson wearing a mask and wondering why his body is suddenly...extraordinary.

Afflicted with a painful disease and abandoned by his parents because of it, he has had to fight tooth and nail for every minor advantage life has allowed him. However, his perseverance has not gone unnoticed, and when the most powerful artificial intelligence in human history takes an interest in him, things began to change quickly.

Story
Arthur lives with his father, a fallen but proud former noble, in Border Village #49, along with the other good folks condemned to toil in service to the Baron. But Arthur has an edge: a stolen heart card that secretly fell into his possession, thanks to a dragon. It’s a priceless source of power for the Baron and the tyrant will kill to get it back. Invaluable, too, to a young man of spellcasting ambitions.

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

Life’s tough when you’re trapped in an eight-year-old body on another world. His name is Eight. Not really, but that’s what the System decided after a slip of the tongue. One moment, he was stepping out the office door on the way home, and the next waking up on a hillside below a town wall. Oh, and the gate guard drove him off, because he thought Eight was a monster. What’s a boy to do in a world full of magic and so many, many hungry creatures searching for their next meal? Well, there’s an old man inside that body, and he'll use everything he’s learned to survive.

Teenage super hero, sort of.
This book is definitely targeted at young adults, with the whole teenage angst, school bully, hormonal changes, etc, etc. None the less it is an enjoyable introduction to what should prove to be a good super hero series.

Not what I expected.
It was pretty well done, for the most part, but the recording had several parts that repeated and once when the speaker actually caught himself apologizing before repeating a line. The story had A LOT of football, full descriptions of games, as well as love quadrangles between the main character and three girls, and while they were rather well done as well, it's not really what I was looking for.

The performance of Chris Patton was outstanding. The inflections and the different character voices brought the story to life. The story is good yet basic and linear. No thought needed to enjoy this book.

'The Outlaw' is one of my favorite series.
When I first read the summary to this book on kindle it intrigued me. When I read the book the story didn't go how the summary made it seem like it would, but I loved it even more because of it. The book itself was more realistic, more thought out, more just plain down to earth in characters, explanations, and the written world in general. You can't help but to care about the characters and what happens to them.
I've read and re-read this series as many times as time and reading new and hopefully promising books allow, but those times seem to get shorter and shorter. When I saw that this series got it's audible debut it was an instant buy for me.
