The Book of Taba: Malapace, Mutants, and Misfits (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798992755619)

Taba never asked to lead. No, he would rather follow the directions of someone much more qualified than him. Still...if no one was willing to step up, what choice did he have but to lead? With his friends, Queenie and Hush, behind him, there isn't any obstacle they can't overcome. Plus, with his ability to get the definite answer to anything he asks, victory is all but assured.

Victory...should have been guaranteed.

Queenie is unmatched in weaponry. From close quarters to ranged sniping, she has no peer. Well...apart from Taba and her brother, Hush. Still, the mission should have been simple: take out the Gatekeepers of Malapace and secure an easy win for the Family.

How...how did she miss? She never missed.

Hush could blame no one but himself. He was a fool to enhance his senses instead of Taba's or Queenie's. Now they were being brought into the damned city of Malapace for interrogation. Had Hush been more reliable...they wouldn't be such a hindrance to their Family.

They just needed to bide their time. The opportunity for revenge would reveal itself.

Despite their vows of retribution, as the trio grows while helping various villagers...something inside of them softens. Who they had believed were cold-hearted enemies show compassion, selflessness, and trust.

Their Father had always emphasized how important it was to follow their gut instinct. So...what happens when their heart tells them to protect those their Family can't coexist with?
