Reviews
Entertainment Weekly 's 27 Female Authors Who Rule Sci-Fi and Fantasy Right Now "Schwab's characters feel vital and real, never reduced to simple archetypes... In a genre that tends toward the flippant or pretentious, this is a rare superhero novel as epic and gripping as any classic comic. Schwab's tale of betrayal, self-hatred, and survival will resonate with superhero fans as well as readers who have never heard of Charles Xavier or Victor von Doom." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "A fun, morally-flexible revenge tale... Vicious methodically ratchets up the tension as Victor and Eli circle each other for the inevitable kill." -- Daniel H. Wilson, NYT bestselling author of Robopocalypse "Schwab gathers all the superhero/supervillain tropes and turns them on their sundry heads.... I could not put it down." -- F. Paul Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of the Repairman Jack series " Vicious is dark and intricate and daring, twisting back and forth through time and morality and life and death until you can't turn the pages fast enough. I loved it." -- Dan Wells, author of I Am Not a Serial Killer "An epic collision of super-powered nemeses. The writing and storycraft is Schwab's own superpower as this tale leaps off the page in all its dark, four-color comic-book glory." -- Chuck Wendig, author of Blackbirds "Utterly brilliant. Schwab takes the notion of superhero fiction and bashes it on its head...prepare to be thoroughly entertained." -- Jackie Kessler, coauthor of Black and White "A noirish cross between the X-Men and 'The Count of Monte Cristo.' You won't be able to stop turning the pages." -- Alex Bledsoe, author of The Hum and the Shiver "V.E. Schwab writes with the fiendish ingenuity, sardonic wit, and twisted imagination of a true supervillian." -- Greg Cox, New York Times bestselling author, Entertainment Weekly 's 27 Female Authors Who Rule Sci-Fi and Fantasy Right Now " Fresh, merciless, and, yes, vicious. Wow. " --Mira Grant, New York Times bestselling author of the Newsflesh Trilogy "Schwab's characters feel vital and real, never reduced to simple archetypes...

Synopsis
A trade paperback repackage of New York Times bestseller V.E. Schwab's Vicious , a masterful tale of ambition, jealousy, and superpowers which will include: *A n ew cover by Wil Staehle, cover artist of the iconic Shades of Magic trilogy covers *Schwab's Tor.com short story set within the Vicious universe, "Warm Up" *A teaser for the upcoming sequel, Vengeful 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, A repackage of New York Times bestseller V.E.
