THEY SENT THE WRONG GUY

In a world on the brink of alien conquest, humanity's last hope was supposed to be Captain Valor—the perfect soldier with the perfect powers and the perfect moral compass.

Instead, they accidentally woke up Dex Kane.

Sarcastic, jaded, and perpetually annoyed, Dex is a forgotten black-ops experiment with unstable powers and a chip on his shoulder the size of Denver (which, coincidentally, was just obliterated by aliens). Reluctantly agreeing to help—mostly because the alternative is returning to cryostasis—Dex finds himself teamed with nervous scientist Dr. Chen, glitchy AI dog Cobalt, and exasperated PR handler Sienna James.

As dimensional invaders called the Apex systematically dismantle Earth's defenses, Dex's chaotic approach proves surprisingly effective. But when the "right" superhero finally awakens, tensions flare as Dex's brutal efficiency clashes with Captain Valor's by-the-book heroics. Worse, buried secrets reveal that both enhanced individuals are pawns in a game that spans dimensions.

With Earth caught between alien invaders, shadowy government agendas, and a looming dimensional merger that could rewrite reality itself, humanity's survival rests in the hands of a man who never wanted to be a hero and definitely didn't ask for the responsibility.

They sent the wrong guy. The universe may never make a better mistake.

A darkly comedic, action-packed sci-fi novel that blends superhero thrills with existential stakes, exploring what happens when the perfect plan falls apart and chaos might be the only thing that saves us all.
