About This Audiobook

In *The Power Unleashed*, G.E. Moore doesn’t just ask what happens when people gain superpowers—he flips the script. This isn’t your run-of-the-mill superhero origin tale. Instead of a controlled rise, Moore throws the Ascension Protocol into the deep end: a global event where abilities erupt without warning, leaving societies scrambling to survive. The chaos isn’t just background noise; it’s the engine of the story, driving characters into morally gray territory where power is as much a curse as a gift. Expect a messy, adrenaline-fueled ride where the real conflict isn’t about defeating villains, but about whether humanity even deserves its newfound abilities. Moore’s world-building is visceral, zipping between crumbling metropolises and the quiet desperation of everyday people suddenly forced to rewrite the rules of existence. It’s a dark, unflinching take on the genre that lingers long after the final chapter.

Editor's Review ★★☆★★

AudioBook Atlas

Joseph Ridenour’s narration is the standout here—his delivery is tight, with a gravelly gravitas that suits the story’s chaotic tone. He balances the urgency of the plot with moments of quiet tension, making even the most mundane interactions crackle with energy. That said, the story’s pacing is uneven. Early chapters drag, weighed down by overlong exposition about the protocol’s mechanics, which could’ve been trimmed without losing impact. The middle third, however, is a sprint—action sequences feel kinetic, and Moore’s knack for small-scale tragedy (a family torn apart by jealousy over powers, a cop forced to choose between justice and survival) gives the chaos real weight. The biggest letdown? The ending feels abrupt, as if Moore hit his word limit mid-scene. Still, if you’re craving a superpower story that’s less about spandex and more about human failure, this one sticks with you. Just don’t expect a neat resolution.
