Like every teen, Anna has secrets. Unlike every teen, Anna
has a telepath for a father and Commerce City's most
powerful businessperson for a mother. She's also the
granddaughter of the city's two most famous superheroes, the
former leaders of the legendary Olympiad, and the company
car drops her off at the gate of her exclusive high school
every morning. Privacy is one luxury she doesn't have.
Hiding her burgeoning superpowers from her parents is hard
enough; how's she supposed to keep them from finding out
that her friends have powers, too? Or that she and the
others are meeting late at night, honing their skills and
dreaming of becoming Commerce City's next great team of
masked vigilantes?
Like every mother, Celia worries about her daughter. Unlike
every mother, Celia has the means to send Anna to the best
schools and keep a close watch on her, every second of every
day. At least Celia doesn't have to worry about Anna
becoming a target for every gang with masks and an agenda,
like Celia was at Anna's age.
As far as Celia knows, Anna isn't anything other than a
normal teen. Still, just in case, Celia has secretly awarded
scholarships at Anna's private high school to the
descendants of the city's other superpowered humans. Maybe,
just maybe, these teens could one day fill the gap left by
the dissolution of The Olympiad....
Dreams of the Golden Age is the stunning sequel to Carrie
Vaughn's groundbreaking superhero novel, After the Golden
Age
