[email protected]: TOO HOT FOR URBAN LIT
Author: Richard Warren Crosson
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1477144692
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
The year is 2016 in the mist of the “great recession” hangs like an ominous storm cloud in the backdrop of this story, which is told in hindsight through the blogs of a chick named Isis. In her sometimes salacious narrative, this iTrills.com blogger, has taken her readers back in time when she was a young crazy-sexy-cool ride-or-die type that shamelessly rocked a red flag. She knew more computer codes than a Silicon Valley whiz-kid. Readers of her blog also get a peek into her sizzling hot sexual affair with a devilishly influential guerilla-gansta’ named Soulja: leader of the notorious B.R.M. clique, and founder of the even more influential iTrilla.com. Never mind that Isis has a man that worships her like her goddess name. She’s become a drifting moth attracted to the flame of Soulja ever since she and her boyfriend met him. While still in the hands of the Feds, Soulja evolved into an informed convict disguised as a blogger. Unfortunately for the powers-that-be he is laced with controversial convictions that has inspired millions. Soon after his release into the free world, he covertly used his own social networking site to chop-it-up with other leaders of illicit underground street orgs. With them he devises a “radical” blueprint to destroy every prison plantation in America: hoping to create a slavery revolt just like the legend of his hero Nat Turner. Of course, no plan of this magnitude could ever unravel without a significant glitch.

They werent born with them, but they were born with the ability to develop them individually over time. They didnt get them all at the same time. They had to earn them over time. Whenever they do good deeds, they receive super credits. After theyve accumulated a non-specific amount of super credits, it triggers a powerful shockwave that unlocks a brand new superpower. Their superpowers are broken down into 3 categories- Offense, Defense, & Special Teams. In addition to the superpowers, they also have special abilities known as apps.

In subsequent episodes, they will earn, develop, & unlock more superpowers & apps. Tyreal is already on the borderline of unlocking new unprecedented superpowers during season one. In spite of the many obstacles & challenges Tyreal has to face, he continues to shine, & remind the world why he is the Son Of Superman.
