Of Blood and Honey

Description
Superheroes and supervillains have been a part of normal life since the 60s... for better or worse. Heroes are now a job like any other; one with benefits, sponsorships, and regulations—all to keep an increasingly unstable society from going over the edge. Surviving this world and making it through high school is hard enough without powers, but Florian Reyes Honeywell's powers are chipping away at his humanity every day.
However, one evening, Florian's lonely routine is interrupted by a terrifying discovery that launches him into the world of superheroes. Meanwhile, a professional superhero named Stitch strikes out on her own for the first time. She begins to question whether or not she wants to be a hero, and what being a hero even means. In these two interwoven narratives, they must protect the fragile foundations of their city and the lives of everyone they care about.

- TerkalanRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0It's rare to see a superhero setting with both realistic grounding, and an actual direction to the overall plot. While the story is a bit slow to get going, it's overall very good. The warning about multiple POVs is appropriate, but at least it's limited to (at time of writing) only two different POVs for the major chapters. And both characters are viewing connected events in the setting so it's ends up feeling like the story is well connected even if the POVs are different.
- Weird EyeballRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0The story is interesting and entertaining, and manages to portray a Superhero world with multiple perspectives with great care, while still having no grammatical errors as far as I can see. I also love the way the mystery and romance is done in this novel, especially since I love when romance is done well. I await with excitement their next chapter.
