Invasion
Based on the 2010 Parsec Award-nominated Speculative Fiction (long form) podcast, Invasion by Mercedes Lackey launches an exciting series filled with Golden Age heroics and explosive fun!

The world has become used to the metahumans—people with extraordinary abilities, who work with their governments as high-powered crime-fighters, hunting rogue metahumans to bring them to justice.

That comfortable world ends suddenly, when all governments are simultaneously attacked by soldiers in giant mecha-robotic suits with swastikas on their arms. If these are Nazis, where have they been hiding since World War II? And where did they get weapons far in advance of anything on the planet? Weapons against which even the metahumans seem helpless....
Hard to read it, but the lower right starburst says ;

I hadn't heard about it, but it's unsurprising. As far as I know, Ms. Lackey is still an avid City of Heroes player.


Where do we go from here?

Just popped it into my Amazon wish list, and it will be on my next round of ordering. Thanks

(Looks like only hardcover atm.)


City of Heroes was my first MMO, & my favorite computer game.
