Rising Tides

Capes, Book 1

By: Marion G. Harmon

Narrated by: Ron Butler

Kingston James Parks' day starts off badly enough when he arrives at work to find the FBI has raided his place of employment.

It gets worse when the Green Zombie Soldiers (really) start shooting at him, and becomes downright surreal when getting shot at triggers his breakthrough, and he teleports to safety. He's become a superhuman, a "jumper."

He'd have rather taken a bullet.

In the days following the Chicago Attack and the Brussels Strike, as the world reels in the aftermath of the Ascendancy's Götterdämmerung plot, Kingston must decide what to do with his newfound power. He's always been good at—very intelligently—avoiding fights, even running from them when he has to. But not everyone he loves can run, and now able to jump away from any fight, he finds himself suiting up to jump into a fight he never could have imagined.

Rising Tides is the first book in superhero author Marion G. Harmon's new Capes series.

Another great Capes world story.

First I will admit to being biased towards Marion G. Harmon's books. I started with the Wearing the Cape series. I have even purchased his game based upon the series. I will say the thing I like most is how he tends to treat the world realistically. I mean as realistic as a Superhero world can be. I think the way he treats his characters is how a normal person would be in such a world. Super powered yes but still has the emotional hang up and character flaws of a normal person.

If you have not read any of his books I highly recommend doing so. .

The new leads power set was unique to me for a literary super power

Love that we are getting more in the cape series. Really hoping to get more in the coming months or years.

Different but good.

I really enjoyed this. Love the street level stuff and the new characters though I hope it gets a little darker like Artemis’s story line. Personally could have lived without the love interest stuff. Make it more like a friend thing but overall a solid entry into universe can’t wait for more.

Super Fun Superhero Story

Engaging story, great characters and superb narration. I’m going online right now to get more from this author.

boring

This book is boring. The main character is uninteresting. The story is like watching paint dry.
