About the Book

Devil's Cape, Louisiana. Founded by pirates. Ruled by villains. Desperate for heroes.

In 1727, in the swamps of Louisiana, the masked pirate St. Diable created the city of Devil's Cape, a haven from which to launch his empire. Pirates gave way to outlaws, who gave way to gangsters, who gave way to organized crime. But the city has never escaped from its quagmire of violence and corruption.

And now a stunning, murderous act has made Devil's Cape more dangerous than ever. Someone must protect the city and its citizens. Three people are willing to try. Jason Kale, part of a criminal family, who hides the abilities of legendary Greek heroes-Argonaut. Cain Ducett, a psychiatrist and former gang member, who is unwillingly turned into a monster-Bedlam. Kate Brauer, genius engineer, daughter of a slain superhero, who has lost more than most to the city and its criminals-Doctor Camelot. They're outnumbered. Outpowered. Can they possibly bring justice to Devil's Cape?

"Now, the superhero novel has received its standard bearer, the one novel all others in the sub-genre will be compared to. That novel is Devil's Cape by Rob Rogers." -William Gatevackes, Pop Matters

"There is NO WAY that this is Rob Rogers's first novel. This is a novel replete with the rewards of a lifetime of training, effort, and passion. Devil's Cape is a mesmerizing, seductive, and darkly moving piece of fiction that seamlessly, even gracefully, marries tactile reality with myth and magic to bring its own pulsating world to life. Beyond expectations, full of surprises, singing with resonance and emotion, Rogers has written a novel that first stabs the superhero genre in the back, then flips the body over and shocks it back to exhilarating life. What arises from this crime scene is a post-modern delight. Take the tour of Devil's Cape -- I guarantee you're going to like it here!" -Greg Rucka, author of Whiteout, Checkmate, Patriot Acts, and more

"Pirates. Circus freaks. Superheroes. I kept waiting for a couple of astronauts and a dinosaur to show up and make Devil's Cape the best book for boys ever." -Frank Byrns, a thousand faces

"Devil's Cape reads like a Disney World ride or a great burger" -David Simms, Hellnotes

"There's a healthy mix of superhero origins involving voodoo, technology, government projects, curses and X-Men style mutations so none of the characters, even the twin brothers, feel like the same person." -Bill Fleming, The Suffolk Voice

"At no point in the space of the one night it took me to obsessively devour this book did I get shaken from the grip of my suspension of disbelief. Despite the fantastic setting, the fabulous powers, and the innate silliness of the super-hero genre, I completely bought in to the whole deal - the world, the setting, the city, the characters, the powers, all of it. The ability to transport the reader so convincingly into the story is the hallmark of a truly great storyteller, and Rogers has definitely achieved it with Devil's Cape." -Jeff Hebert, HeroMachine

"Devil's Cape, itself a gangster thriller and a historical travelogue of the growth of a pirate town from the 18th Century to the modern day, just touches the tip of the iceberg that is this richly detailed setting and I am sure Rob must be working on sequels - the book is crying out for one" -Tim Knight, HeroPress.net

"Devil's Cape is an entertaining, effortlessly captivating read, dripping with what Alannah Myles once called a slow southern style. It's this sweltering Deep South ambience, and to some extent pacing, which makes it stand out from other superhero based novels." -Nathan Brazil, SF Site
