Nomadic construction worker Vlad inadvertently gains superpowers and enters
ultratime after guzzling a radioactive energy drink he finds near the nuclear-disaster
site of Chernobyl. Svetlana, an army veteran coping with PTSD, sees Vlad
crash back into real time, finds him unconscious, and saves his life. They bond over
this secret, fall in love, and decide to use the stash of energy drinks to fight evil as the
superhero duo HyperVigilanté.
Both sci-fi adventure and love story, this David-versus-Goliath tale set in Russia is rife
with pop culture references from video games, movies, TV series, music, and even
scripture. A fun and funny mash-up of Russian and American cultures, it’s a wild ride
with Vlad and Svetlana as they battle mobsters, terrorists, and corrupt politicians while
building a new life together.
If you want the explosive action of the Equalizer paired with the awkward nerdiness of
Napoleon Dynamite and served with a side of Easter eggs like Ready Player One, then
HyperVigilanté belongs in your hands! Buy yourself a copy! An early reader of the book
said, “A good book makes me consider how the characters would react to real world
situations. You’ve made me do that with Vlad and Svetlana.”
