David Charleston has lived for one purpose: to kill Steelheart, the supremely powerful, seemingly invincible Epic who murdered his father. Now Steelheart is dead and David is beginning to question everything that he—and the world—understands about the superhumans they call Epics.
David’s suspicions are the reason he follows Prof to the flooded city once known as New York. But what he finds there could be what ultimately ends him. The truth might just burn deepest of all. . . .

4.25/5 stars I learned something about myself while reading this book. I love books that deal with that superhero theme, or maybe it's better to call them superpowers in this case. My favorite book, [b:Vicious 13638125 Vicious (Villains, #1) V.E. Schwab https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1527839682l/13638125.SX50.jpg 19250870] deals with this kind of thing, and I found myself loving every minute of Firefight.This book. Just wow. It's so action packed, so funny, so unpredictable. [b:Steelheart 17182126 Steelheart (The Reckoners, #1) Brandon Sanderson https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1357576738l/17182126.SY75.jpg 21366540] was the exact same way. They are everything I ever want in a series, and depending on how the next book is, and if it is just as amazing as the first two, this trilogy might just turn into one of my favorites.
Great follow up to the first of the series. Sanderson develops on the world in just the way you'd want - with twists and turns leaving you wanting more. I already can't wait for the next one in this series.
