Summary

The Legendary Lionheart aims to ground sci-fi superhero stories. As a first-degree Black Belt real and exaggerated martial arts techniques are used to choreograph the fight scenes. Unlike most fantastical stories about heroes, this book emphasizes relationships rather than fighting evil masterminds or combating world-ending threats.

Although there is a plethora of super-powered action, it is a teenage coming of age story at its core. A quiet kid fighting a sound-based villain may seem a little on the nose until you read deeper. The Legendary Lionheart explores relatable teenage experiences: trying to win over crushes, insecurities, friendships, toxic relationships, school, relationships, psychic powers, and more!

This story is geared towards teenagers and young adults.
