Liberator: Vol. 1 State Sponsored Hero - Hardcover

by Craig Weidhuner (Author)

Ever since he was a small child growing up in the Democratic People's Republic of Ruthenia, Tovarich Revanov was always taught about the "enemies of the people," and that "enemies" don't deserve compassion or mercy. Now, as an adult, he's about to put that lesson to the test. Chosen to be "the Liberator," he's the state's newest "official state-sponsored hero," here to protect the workers of Ruthenia from the "enemies of the people." Unfortunately, in a totalitarian dictatorship, "enemies" can be anyone, from terrorists plotting to blow up

buildings, to peaceful demonstrators protesting their government's poor human-rights record, both of which he must face when a terrorist group plots to kidnap the premier in protest of the state's iron-clad rule. Fortunately, he's been genetically modified to be stronger and more resilient than the average person. But do these enhancements help make him a better hero, or further emphasize him as a tool of oppression? Is he the hero or is he the villain? Join Tovarich in this exciting new series as he discovers for himself what it truly means to be a hero. The only real question is: Will his definition of "hero" be compatible with that of the state?
