Description

Book 1:Follow Emily as she awakens to become a Super Soldier in the army and follow her through her training and first tour of duty. The first book is complete and it's staying up on RR. 400+ pages and 46 Chapters.

Reader beware this is a rough draft and that means that the grammar is going to be ...spotty. I will go back and edit chapters at a later date. I am working on getting a better editing program. If you spot grammar errors don't be shy and tell me. It might take a while for me to fix it as I am busy writing and working my full-time job. I promise you I will fix it though and I deeply appreciate those who point out errors that I can fix.

In a world where super power exists, everyone would want to awaken theirs. The story is about one young girl who joined a training camp with the hope of being one of those supers.
Join her in her journey to make a part of history.

I'm really impressed with how the author incorporated super powers with the soldiers and making them still human. They are not overpowered at all. They still have feelings. They can die.
I've thoroughly enjoyed the story and ate each and every word. Kudos to the author.
100% recommend this.

I didn't expect that I would like this story this much.
The characters are fun and the world is unique.
I hope that the writer continues this story at some point down the road. There is a bit of a mystery still to be unraveled with the main character and the world itself.
Give it a read when you get the chance.

This is one of the best completed stories I've read on RR. The author has (apparent) experience with the military life, a great idea, and persistence to finish.
Never gets it- most of the time you hope someone's decision doesn't get you hurt. I loved the world built with levels of Supers, jobs, and society. I liked this ending; though open ended, it fits how rarely 'happily ever after' exists.
There were grammatical errors, Pacing adjustments noted, and a few magic-offscreen moments (plot armor) but over all, this is worth reading.
I hope the author continues writing. They have a growing talent.

★★★★★ 4.5
it's a good story
the concept of a super in the military is interesting
the only minus would be the military jargon that is sometimes a bit too much
it's cool for the immersion bur for someone who doesn't understand it, it's a little too much.
if you can put a dictinary at the begining/end of each chapter with the term and the signification it would be great.
the immersion would not suffer and reader with bad memory (like mine) would just need to scroll to understand the military jargon.

Feels like a prequel to Supervillainy and other poor career choices. You know, before they lost control over the Supers and the world went to shit.
As of writing this review, alot of plots have been made obsolete by current events... Hard to remember how much stuff happend in the last 4 years.
Character development of the MC, Private/Sgt. Emmerson, starts off as a dorky, somewhat happy girl that signed up for super school in hopes of becomming a speester.
The name of this book is extremly fitting. Like the Boys, superheros arn't really fighting crime, they just have their own reality tv-shows.
The different types of super soldiers are what the name implies: Soldiers. You will see alot of people die during this story.
Andalot of sick shit is going to happen...
Definitly worth a read!

I was afraid of too much military jargon, but that was not the case. A very pleasent read that keep me interested chapter after chapter so far.
One negative is the abundance of grammar errors, that hopefully will be fixed in the future.

It's a good story, if you like this kind of thing, but the editing is terrible. Bad grammer, spelling, and punctuation along with sometime wrong word usage. If that kind of thing turns you off, go no further.
That being said, it's a good story about a new super soldier/hero and her life for a period of time shortly after she entered the military. There is an overarching plot to the story, but a lot of it is simply a series of connected vignettes.

The story has some interesting ideas but the poor grammar was taking me out of the story. Half of the your in the story should be you're and so on. It’s a pity because I felt that the story would be good but I could not get into it because of the grammar issues .

Read up until chapter 21
Sorry I love digital marine but I kinda found this story boring.
Good grammar, uninteresting characters, story and world.
Author has progressed a lot if you look at how digital marine is shaping up.
