High schooler Luther Strode was always a little bit less than average — soft-spoken, skinny, and, more than anything, terrified that his estranged father would one day return to torment him and his mother once more.

When The Method's masters arrive to observe Luther's progress and draw him into action, he'll be forced to make the ultimate choice: embrace the monster he was intended to be... or use his newfound power to protect the people — the classmates, the teachers, the neighbors—who never protected him when he needed them the most.
