The Transcendents

It all started in the second decade of the year 2000; when the world fell into a dystopia. Genocidal extraterrestrial beings, an oppressive empire and humans possessing supernatural abilities dominated the world as they changed the standards of war. An orphan, delinquent and mentally unstable young adult male, living in a border district of a post-apocalyptic city; was immensely devastated by constant tragedies. Until, the last tragedy that occurred to him unexpectedly put him in the league of those humans possessing supernatural abilities which society calls “human anomalies”. Thus, he obtained enhanced physical abilities he never asked for, so in order to adapt to it, he uses that burden to lead a career of malevolence and blood money. Subsequently, the life he chose to lead — led him to crossing paths with a mysterious group of mercenary human anomalies who claimed to be affiliated with a powerful secret society. But instead of calling themselves ‘human anomalies’ they prefer to be formally called “Transcendents”. (p.s.: The main character’s portrait in the book cover is an art by Phoebe Sarmiento.
