Captain Marvel: Liberation Run cover

An all-new original novel in which the most powerful hero in the Marvel Universe must free Inhuman slaves imprisoned on a distant world. WHEN A MYSTERIOUS SPACECRAFT COMES HURTLING TOWARD EARTH, CAROL DANVERS—THE HERO KNOWN AS CAPTAIN MARVEL—NARROWLY PREVENTS IT FROM CRASHING. The craft’s pilot is Rhi, a young Inhuman woman, part of a group who rejected that society’s caste system and left for the stars in search of a new life. What they found, however, was imprisonment on a planet ruled by a cruel patriarchy. There, Inhumans are treated like currency, and possession of an Inhuman girl brings the master great power and influence. To refuse means death, and Rhi has risked everything to seek help. Horrified by the picture the young woman paints, Carol pledges to accompany her back to the planet and pulls together a team of heroes to help. Joined by Ant-Man, Mantis, and Amadeus Cho (Brawn), Carol and Rhi set out to free her family, her people, and an entire world.

"without a doubt a feminist novel bound to lift women up and inspire them to be great" - Culturess "Carol and her friends are an unstoppable force, with hope on their side" - BookRiot "I thoroughly enjoyed this well-developed story with plenty of colorful characters and humor to round out the grim situation" - SciFi Chick "a fantastic feminist joy ride that you can feel good about putting into the hands of a teen or adult" - Fangirl Nation "The story moves quickly and sucks you right in...and the journey is an exciting one to the very end" - Girl Who Reads
