About the book:
Coming from the capital city Brutopolis and its neighbouring fragment-areas, this legion of heroes are here to display a wide range of manifest potencies: Fractal, their reluctant, amateur leader, master of solid light-geometric shapes, Amshu, in constant harmony with vital energies, Vacuity, creator of teleporting gates, Thistle, gardener of the elemental flora and former partner of Fractal, Lymph, the lethal, acrobatic shapeshifter, and Zenith, master of mind over matter, among others. The Potentials are the heroes and protectors of their city, the stars and role models in a diverse and allegedly free society. However, only a few citizens manage to awake their potential and secure a place in this special team. But what does it take to reach this elite group and how high is the price that Brutopolis is paying to protect this utopia?
