Why read it?

1 author picked Caped as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Theo never wanted to be a superhero, so when he suddenly develops superpowers all he’d prefer to do is go back to life as normal.

But he’s already got a super nemesis that’s out to kill him.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the rest of the series.

From Taylor's list on how to save the day from the villain.
