Is he part of a self-proclaimed “boy freak” with few friends and low self-esteem. When the Sovereign Era dramatically dawns, Nate finds himself in a quest to discover the truth: is he more than he seems, a misfit in a miraculous and remarkable, powerful new minority… or something else entirely? just a misfit among misfits?
