Now a New York Times bestseller!
Featuring an exclusive short story from the perspective of your favorite feline! Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits. Jake had enemies, and now they're coming after Charlie. His uncle might have been a stand-up, old-fashioned kind of villain, but these are the real thing: rich, soulless predators backed by multinational corporations and venture capital. It's up to Charlie to win the war his uncle started against a league of supervillains. But with unionized dolphins, hyper-intelligent talking spy cats, and a terrifying henchperson at his side, going bad is starting to look pretty good. In a dog-eat-dog world...be a cat.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Tor BooksISBN-13:9781250879394ISBN-10:1250879396UPC:9781250879394Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Science Fiction, Superheroes (See Also Comics & Graphic NovelsBook Topic:Action & Adventure, Superheroes), HumorousAward:2024 Alex Awards Winner - Adult/For Young Adults Award|2024 Hugo Award Finalist - Novel AwardSize:8.10 x 5.40 x 0.90 inchesWeight:0.55Product ID:SCCF6EZMQ3
