Reviews"Readers won't be able to put down this dark and riveting tale of power and revenge."-- Kirkus Reviews , starred "With all the knife-sharp thrill of its cinematic predecessor, 2013's Vicious , bestseller Schwab's second Villains series plunges readers back into the world of extraordinary humans."-- Publisher's Weekly , starred " Vengeful picks up five years after the insane events of book one, ratcheting up the stakes and introducing two kickass women with extraordinary powers."-- Paste Magazine "Schwab does a masterful job in these two books, capturing all of the questions superheroes would raise in our reality and with nuance not often found in the genre at large."-- BookRiot "If Vicious is a blast to the chest, then Vengeful is a cold knife between the ribs, sharp and something that'll sit with you long after you reach the last page."-- Culturess "[Schwab is] a highly skilled writer...With each page, the story grows faster, denser, and more inescapable, like all good books should. Vengeful , like Vicious before it, is one of those books."-- Den of Geek "The long-anticipated sequel to V.S. Schwab's super-villain novel, Vicious , is finally here, and it's worth the wait."-- Bustle "V.E. Schwab showcases her prolific writing prowess in Vengeful...an adrenaline rush."-- Hypable, "Readers won't be able to put down this dark and riveting tale of power and revenge."-- Kirkus Reviews , starred "With all the knife-sharp thrill of its cinematic predecessor, 2013's Vicious , bestseller Schwab's second Villains series plunges readers back into the world of extraordinary humans."-- Publisher's Weekly , starred " Vengeful picks up five years after the insane events of book one, ratcheting up the stakes and introducing two kickass women with extraordinary powers."-- Paste Magazine "Schwab does a masterful job in these two books, capturing all of the questions superheroes would raise in our reality and with nuance not often found in the genre at large."-- BookRiot "If Vicious is a blast to the chest, then Vengeful is a cold knife between the ribs, sharp and something that'll sit with you long after you reach the last page."-- Culturess "[Schwab is] a highly skilled writer...With each page, the story grows faster, denser, and more inescapable, like all good books should. Vengeful , like Vicious before it, is one of those books."-- Den of Geek "Vengeful combines shades of Mary Shelley with a shadowy government agency worthy of the X-Men and a plot that asks deep questions about ethics, revenge, life, and death. In a world where there are no heroes, whose side will you choose?"-- B&N Sci-Fi Fantasy Blog "The long-anticipated sequel to V.S. Schwab's super-villain novel, Vicious , is finally here, and it's worth the wait."-- Bustle "V.E. Schwab showcases her prolific writing prowess in Vengeful...an adrenaline rush."-- Hypable

Synopsis*NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* *GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD WINNER FOR BEST SCIENCE FICTION CATEGORY* *Entertainment Weekly 's 27 Female Authors Who Rule Sci-Fi and Fantasy Right Now* A super-powered collision of extraordinary minds and vengeful intentions--V. E. Schwab returns with the thrilling follow-up to Vicious . Magneto and Professor X. Superman and Lex Luthor. Sydney and Serena Clarke. Victor Vale and Eli Ever. Great partnerships--now soured on the vine. But Marcella Riggins needs no one. Flush from her brush with death, she's gained the control she always sought--and will use her newfound power to bring the city of Merit to its knees. She'll do whatever it takes, from taking over the mob to collecting her own sidekicks, and even leveraging the two most infamous EOs, Victor Vale and Eli Ever, in a dangerous game of cat and mouse. With Marcella's rise, new enmities create surprising opportunity--and the stage of Merit will once again be set for a final, terrible reckoning. "In Vengeful , V.E. Schwab is at the top of her game, with twisty action, oddball family pairings and unexpected antiheroes you can't help but root for." -- Washington Post "Schwab's characters feel vital and real, never reduced to simple archetypes... In a genre that tends toward the flippant or pretentious, this is a rare superhero novel as epic and gripping as any classic comic. Schwab's tale of betrayal, self-hatred, and survival will resonate with superhero fans as well as readers who have never heard of Charles Xavier or Victor von Doom." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review, *NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* *2018 GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD WINNER FOR BEST SCIENCE FICTION CATEGORY* *Entertainment Weekly 's 27 Female Authors Who Rule Sci-Fi and Fantasy Right Now* A super-powered collision of extraordinary minds and vengeful intentions--V.
