Five years after the Tuldarian invasion nearly leveled Manhattan, things are suspiciously good for Sawyer Vincent. As the leader of the New Guild of Masked Crimefighters, he’s finally filling the suit of his legendary father, the original Black Harrier.

When the manipulative Smokeshow arrives with a team of super-powered outcasts, she doesn't just attack the Guild—she infiltrates their minds, turning their deepest insecurities into lethal weapons. With the hot-headed Red Raptor spiraling into a murderous rage and a mole threatening to tear the team apart, Sawyer’s imposter syndrome is the least of his worries.To stop the conspiracy and save his father's legacy, Sawyer must use his memory-copying abilities to lead a fractured team against an enemy who knows their every move before they do.
Join the New Guild in this high-octane superhero epic, perfect for fans of Jaime Castle's The Raptors and The Boys.
This is officially the start of a brand new Raptors series. You don't need to read the series to enjoy The New Guild, though in chronological order, Smoke and Fire is book 7.
I was so excited to read this book and man did it not disappoint me in the least. If you love superheroes and Comics, you will love this series. I am so excited for the next two! This story was terrific and I enjoyed the development of old characters and especially the new ones.
