Supervillainy is a way of life.

For twelve-year-old Alex Knight, joining the family business has never been a question. Since birth his parents have been grooming him for glory as a member of the Cloak Society — an elite group of supervillains who are committed to fighting against the Rangers of Justice. Cloak is everything Alex believes in, and everything he’s ever wanted. But during his first mission, Alex saves the life of a girl named Kirbie — a young Ranger and budding superhero. And as the two become friends, Alex begins to question his life with Cloak — and what, exactly, he’s been fighting for.

Packed with high-stakes battles, extraordinary superpowers, and life-changing decisions, The Cloak Society is the launch of a thrilling middle-grade trilogy that turns everything you know about superheroes on its head. Fans of The 39 Clues and the Alex Rider Adventures will be hooked!

“An original fantasy world with a detailed backstory and myriad intriguing characters. This debut novel is a strong start to a series that will likely find the same wide appeal as Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson books.” — School Library Journal
