Product Information

Among the targets on the hit list is a mysterious Marine named Shane Schofield, call-sign: Scarecrow. Contest • Temple • Hover Car Racer • The Tournament ( Roger Ascham and the King's Lost Girl • Roger Ascham and the Dead Queen's Command) • The Great Zoo of China • The Secret Runners of New York • Cobalt Blue Not boring nor exciting for me. I didn’t really like the type of genre but every chapter had a cliffhanger so that made me read the whole book. The author also added a gay character, which I liked but I definitely thought it wasn’t necessary. Matthew's books are published in over twenty languages and have sold more than eight million copies worldwide. In 2022 his feature film debut Interceptor, which he co-wrote and directed, shot to No. 1 on Netflix around the world. Oh and Cobalt Gold?? Talk about ridiculously stereotypical. Listen, I’m well aware that stereotypical gays exist, but “Golden Gary” was the most 2 dimensional queer character I’ve ever seen.

years ago, Cassie and Arnold were alone at the family home in Texas when two of the Fury's sons, the Fury of Odessa and the Fury of Kazan, broke into the house. Odessa and Kazan admitted that their government's agencies have little intel on Cassie, and their intent to gift both her and Arnold's heads to their father. Despite an attempt at fleeing, Kazan managed to snatch Arnold from Cassie and broke his spine with a single punch, crippling him. Before the brothers could move in on Cassie, Cobalt returned home and swiftly killed the two Furies, later having their severed heads delivered to the Russian embassy in Washington. This incident prompted the family's relocation to a new home in Montana.The problem with this? Cobalt Blue was much older than Fury when she got superpowers, which unfortunately don’t stop aging and heart failure. So one day after Cobalt’s death, the Fury of Russia comes to America to kill her offspring and wipe out the country. The New York State Library will for one night host a contest, one in which Dr Swain will compete in whether he likes it or not. It’s obviously inspired by The Boys, Shazam, and a dash of Marvel (I mean, Russia’s secret weapon, America’s greatest hero?? AND A TOP SECRET SUPER EVIL GENIUS?? C’MON), but it was so cringe and flat that even if you’re not a fan of Marvel/DC, you’d think they’re masterpieces compared to this. If it wasn’t filled with WAY too many mentions of r*pe (seriously. Where were those editors..?!) I’d say it COULD have MAYBE worked as a teen action book, but even then it would have been SOOOOO BAD, because once you take away the terrible bits, guess what? You’re just left with the shit writing. I blitzed through this book and I'm definitely keen to read more from this world of megalomaniac supes. It was dark, brutal and fast, and left me craving more.

While an uneasy truce was held between America and Russian thanks to the presence of their respective superheroes, Cobalt and the Fury of Russia remained rivals for many years. Yet in spite of their great abilities, both continued to age as normal humans do, and Cobalt, already older than the Fury by two decades, eventually passes away at age 79. As soon as she passes, the Fury - no longer possessing an equal to oppose him - announces that he will soon begin a campaign of destruction against the U.S. and to eliminate Cobalt's children. An invaluable idol was buried deep in the jungles of Peru four hundred years ago. To the Incan people, the idol is a symbol of their spirit.The day after Cobalt's funeral, the Fury arrives over Washington, D.C. to begin his campaign. Cassie, now aged 29 and working at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Los Angeles, watches the television broadcast as her eldest brother, Greg, aka Cobalt Green, steps forward to take on the Fury. Having served proudly in the United States Army, Cobalt Green might seem to the one to end the Fury's campaign before it begins, but alas he is swiftly defeated and decapitated. As the Fury practically demolishes the Pentagon before flying off to his next destination, the horrified Cassie and her husband Trey Cassowitz decide to return home. When Skye Rodgers and her twin brother Red move to Manhattan, rumours of a coming global apocalypse are building. But this doesn't stop the young elite from partying without a care.
