IMPERATOR: Book 2 : The New Order

He promised order. He enforced it. Two years after stopping the Hudson with his bare hands, Max is no longer just an invulnerable man hunted by an angry nation. He has become the Imperator - the undisputed master of five zones, five Governors installed under his authority, a world that bends because it no longer really has the choice to resist. But ruling through fear carries a price no victory can settle. Sarah is carrying his child, and a question she no longer asks out loud: how far will he go to keep order standing? Marcus, the brother he thought he'd lost, is quietly building a methodical, patient, continent-spanning resistance. And at the very top of his own Order, one of the founders who made him king is holding a secret that could bring it all down. From Vienna to Kourou, from Brasília to Earth orbit, this second book tells the story of an empire's birth and the exact price of its stability - every name on a list, every silence kept, every state lie judged necessary for peace. IMPERATOR - Book 2: The New Order is written for adult readers of political thrillers and dark superhero fiction, in the vein of Watchmen and Injustice: an unfiltered account of what a savior becomes when no one around him is still able to tell him no.
