A cross between “The Boys” and “Wonder Woman,” INDOMITABLE will have you on the edge of your seat, cheering for a plucky heroine who has to fight much more than City Hall to save the day.
Irene Roman never wanted to be a hero. Fortunately for the world, she turned into one.
Irene Roman was just a scientist living an otherwise normal life until one fateful evening – and one startling betrayal. In the literal blink of an eye, not only her life but the future of the entire planet has changed. Without warning, random people have gained powers and abilities far above those of mortal men and women, acting like superheroes and villains plucked right out of a comic book.
Now, these newly empowered beings – called the Pushed – battle across the Earth, shattering lives as they wrest mankind’s destiny from its grasp. Witness to it all is Irene, who not only knows the cause of this unbelievable change but may be the only person with a chance to stop the chaos. But there are legions of heroes and villains alike who stand in her way, all unwilling to give up their new “gifts.” Will Irene have the indomitable spirit to fight for humanity’s fate? And if so, what price will she pay to be the hero she never wanted to be?

Fantastic superhero! Really enjoyed seeing the take of superheroes suddenly appearing in our world, and examining the real impacts of battles between those with powers on everyone else. Indomitable was a really fun main character, who epitomized what it means to be a heroine, while struggling against some of the faults of traditional superheroes. Highly recommend and looking forward to the sequel.
