Book Description
Welcome to the world of ExtraOrdinary. ELI EVER identified school student CHARLOTTE TILL as a target person with EXTRAORDINARY abilities and made her his next target. Haunted by visions of her death at the hands of Eli, Charlotte set out to kill him first. She tracked him down to the town of Merit, unaware that Eli and EON knew she was coming and had laid a trap for her. Luckily, Charlotte was rescued by two fellow EOs, FELIX and MARSHALL, who vowed to help her in her quest if she helped them to rescue a fellow EO, called MIA, from the same facility as Eli. Together they formulated a plan that saw both Charlotte and Felix infiltrate the EON facility - Charlotte by allowing herself to be arrested, and Felix by utilizing their abilities to physically break into the complex. Once inside, Marshall deactivated the security systems giving the ExtraOrdinary pair five minutes to complete their missions. However, Eli was already aware of their presence and more than prepared for the final bloody confrontation that he know was destined to take place...

Book Description
V. E. Schwab's New York Times bestseller Vicious is a masterful tale of ambition, jealousy, desire, and superpowers. Victor and Eli started out as college roommates—brilliant, arrogant, lonely boys who recognized the same sharpness and ambition in each other. In their senior year, a shared research interest in adrenaline, near-death experiences, and seemingly supernatural events reveals an intriguing possibility: that under the right conditions, someone could develop extraordinary abilities. But when their thesis moves from the academic to the experimental, things go horribly wrong. Ten years later, Victor breaks out of prison, determined to catch up to his old friend (now foe), aided by a young girl whose reserved nature obscures a stunning ability. Meanwhile, Eli is on a mission to eradicate every other super-powered person that he can find—aside from his sidekick, an enigmatic woman with an unbreakable will. Armed with terrible power on both sides, driven by the memory of betrayal and loss, the archnemeses have set a course for revenge—but who will be left alive at the end? In Vicious, V. E. Schwab brings to life a gritty comic-book-style world in vivid prose: a world where gaining superpowers doesn't automatically lead to heroism, and a time when allegiances are called into question. "A dynamic and original twist on what it means to be a hero and a villain. A killer from page one...highly recommended!" —Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Marvel Universe vs The Avengers and Patient Zero One of Publishers Weekly's Best Fantasy Books of 2013 At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Four months since his path crossed with Delilah Bard. Four months since Rhy was wounded and the Dane twins fell, and the stone was cast with Holland's dying body through the rift, and into Black London.
