Kirkus Reviews says: “The characters, particularly Moses, are well drawn, and aspects of Moses’ journey, such as the way it’s covered in the media and his efforts to translate his grassroots movement into a political one … may remind readers of events in our own time. … A complex work that engages with an era that feels simultaneously remote and frightfully contemporary.”
WHAT IF THE FIRST SUPERHERO WAS A BLACK TEEN GROWING UP IN JIM CROW ALABAMA?
Meet fifteen-year-old Mo Crawford of Tuskegee who’s on his way to being 10-feet tall and bullet proof. Right now, he’s also on his way to try to save his uncle from being lynched. The first step in a journey which takes him from losing everything to up-ending a nation’s political order. But the old order doesn’t go down without a fight – just because Mo can’t be killed doesn’t mean he can’t be hurt.
