Vengeful

Picking up after the events of "Vicious," V.E. Schwab's "Vengeful" plunges back into the dark, morally ambiguous world of ExtraOrdinaries (EOs). The city of Merit is once again a battleground, but this time, the stakes are higher and the players more dangerous. Marcella Riggins, a woman scorned and now imbued with formidable powers after a near-death experience, emerges as a terrifying new force. Driven by a desire to bring Merit to its knees and reshape it according to her own ruthless vision, Marcella gathers her own cadre of EOs, turning them into instruments of her vengeance. Meanwhile, the infamous rivals Victor Vale and Eli Ever, EOs whose collision course defined the previous narrative, find themselves unwilling pawns in Marcella's grand scheme. Their deeply personal feud is rekindled and manipulated, forcing them to confront not only each other but also the existential threat Marcella poses. As new alliances are forged and old enmities resurface with lethal intensity, the stage is set for a cataclysmic showdown that promises to redefine heroism and villainy, leaving Merit City forever altered by the forces of extraordinary power and unforgiving retribution.
