Regret: Volume Two of Ebb & Flow [Psychological Superpowered Thriller]
by Mister Sol
Volume One Synopsis:
Eryk Blakely is off. He was born without emotions and has been playing the part of a normal person. On the night of the end-of-the-year senior party, a bullied student shows up wearing a demon mask and starts killing people with laser beams. The attack results in countless casualties, causing Eryk to awaken his own ability. He can permanently remove other people's powers, and when he does, he also takes a piece of their personality. He may not have been born with any emotions of his own, but he now has a way to steal them. There are no lines he won’t cross to gather more pieces. He will steal, cripple, manipulate, torture, and kill his way into becoming human.
This story does have heroes, but Eryk is not one of them.
What to expect:
-Faction/Organization Building
-Intelligent/Calculating MC
-Slow burn, step-by-step rise to power
-Interesting 3-dimensional cast of characters
-Neutral Evil protagonist
Volume Two Synopsis:
Nobody assembled his group, formed a company, eliminated his enemies, and amassed a wealth of powers and personality pieces. He did it all without leaving a single witness, maintaining his anonymity. Everything was going perfectly until he found out he had an observer nearly the entire time. A Cape thought long dead was behind the scenes, watching him from above. Nobody was shown just how vast the world is, and how small he truly is in the world of Neuvohumans. Forced to destroy his base, give up nine powers, and expose his identity to a subordinate, he isn’t deterred but fiercely motivated to get strong enough to never be in that position again. Quinstin has no idea that Nobody has arrived. By the time they do, it will be too late. Nothing will stand in his way; the BNA, the Heroes’ Union, rival Cowl groups, and other unaffiliated Neuvohumans will bend the knee or be crushed by his boot.
