Even resilience has its limits. Hania Hawke, the hero known as Raiden, was no stranger to being defeated. Being held captive, though, that was another story. With the Guardian of Metal holding the demigod as his personal plaything, it’s up to the Guardian of Water and the Guardian of Nature to help rescue him. With old friends and new friends joining forces, can they save their friend before he is left completely broken?

Some wounds run deeper than physical scars. The Guardian of Night nearly killed them. Hania Hawke—better known as the superhero Raiden—survived. So did Alana, the Guardian of Water, and Juan, the Guardian of Nature. Barely. Broken, battered, and left unconscious for days, the three Guardians retreat to Arizona to recover from an enemy unlike anything they've faced before. With powers tied to darkness, the stars, Tartarus, and the shadow of Chernobog, the Guardian of Night has given Hania something he isn't accustomed to feeling in a fight: Fear. But Hania isn't running alone anymore.

Disobeying the gods has consequences. Hania Hawke was supposed to be the Guardian of Lightning—a superhero chosen to serve the gods of lightning. Now those same gods have forsaken him. One moment of rage. One devastating mistake. And with Kagutsuchi manipulating events from the shadows, Hania has gone from Guardian to fugitive. His fellow Guardians have their orders: Find Raiden. Bring him down. With nothing left for him in New Mexico, Hania goes on the run, forced to face opponents who understand the gods just as well as he does, if not more.

Hania Hawke is an irregular—a super-powered being living in a world that still hasn't decided what to do with people like him. Gifted with the power of lightning, Hania chooses to use his abilities to protect others, taking on the name Raiden. But becoming a superhero comes with consequences. Raiden's growing publicity—and the fact that he is the first Guardian to have godly blood flowing through him—draws the attention of Kagutsuchi, the Emperor of Fire.
