Synopses & Reviews
Fiction. Gay and Lesbian Studies. Rump-smacking good action-adventure trans fiction that boots transgender literature out of the classroom and into modern hipster culture with its unapologetic depiction of young genderqueers and their daily struggles for income, housing and friendship. A hard-edged tale of passion, revenge, and low-rent apartments, SUPERVILLAINZ has romance, car chases, brutal superheroes, epic battles in dyke bars, and a climax that will have you reaching for the tissues. "This fast-paced adventure features transgendered characters who immediately grab the reader's interest and empathy. SUPERVILLAINS is saturated with laughter, tears, and adrenaline. It's sexy, queer, and smarter than most whips"--Patrick Califia.
