In 2041 superhumans live among us, but none of them want to save the world. Below Manhattan's shimmering megatowers, Matthew Moxon has done virtually nothing with his record-shattering IQ except catalogue comic books and cheat at blackjack... until he discovers a tumour is pressing against his brain. Unable to afford life-saving surgery, Mox enters a deadly sporting event where superhumans fight for a multi-billion dollar prize. But in a competition with demigods, he's the only one without a super power... and he's armed with nothing more than his rapidly diminishing brain cells.
