prologue

Utah has always been a fan of mythology and its profound creatures. He watched the movies; he read the comics; he went to the local cons. He was the type of high-schooler to be found sitting in the back corner of the classroom doodling monsters on his homework assignment.

What he didn't know? That these fantastical creatures would soon become a reality.

When an ancient force is reawakened within the streets of present-day London, a town of magical history and divinely dark secrets, people begin to disappear. Reports of gruesome murders and terrifying monsters are being phoned in across the country by the hundreds. And after a slight altercation with a wart-faced troll wielding an electric staff, Utah has become one of those monsters, too.

Much too scared and all too hairy, he seeks out answers in long forgotten library textbooks and weird websites; but instead of discovering the reason why he morphs into a wolf at the break of every sunset, he discovers people just like him, a group of mythical misfits cast away from normality.

So what will Utah and his newly-acquired friends-- though a certain pink haired pixie has become much more than that-- do as they struggle to find their place among their magical, war-torn society? Become a group of superhero's and kick some mythological ass.
