Xlibris releases a tale of superhero struggles in The Fragile Light

written July 26, 2007

The struggles of a super-powered woman – and her team of misfits – in a society that rejects and hates superheroes are the focus of the Xlibris release, The Fragile Light: A Herotown Novel, by David Nurenberg.

The Fragile Light zeroes in on the life of Gayle Fellman, aka Gal Friday, and her efforts to continue living the superhero lifestyle in a world that has ostracized people with powers. Gayle has been living in the ghettos of Herotown, where super-powered individuals have been relocated after nuclear devastation was unleashed by a superhuman terrorist.

Nurenberg’s tale revolves around the character dynamics between Gayle, her vampire fiancé, an eccentric inventor, as well as a detective with a dark secret – and strong affections for Gal Friday. Together, they form a super hero team – the Friday Knights – in an attempt regain their rights to be real heroes and to defend the world from an international conspiracy that threatens humanity.

The Fragile Light is the first chapter of The Herotown Trilogy and is available at the Xlibris.com bookstore.
