Synopsis
Aegis is back! But are the Paragons no more? Fresh off a summer vacation to remember, Hugo resumes his role protecting the city of San Miguel. As a teen hero trying to make his way through a dangerous world, he's been forced to reflect on the impact he's making around him while juggling his ambitions and romances with his growing responsibilities as Aegis. On top of all that, Hugo and his friends are now on the cusp of adulthood starting their senior year of high school. However, the scars from Damocles's reign of terror have not fully healed, with countless superheroes across America hanging up their capes for good. Hugo is also haunted by mistakes of the past, uncertain if he should continue leading the Paragons or even keep the team together. But that doubt could prove fatal when a new threat emerges. One that wants absolute power at all costs and will slaughter any superhero who stands in their way. That leaves Hugo with one choice. Rebuild the Paragons and be Big Damn Superheroes. If he doesn't, all of California will suffer. Join the fight in The Greater Good, Book 9 of the bestselling Pantheon Saga. Grab your copy today!
