Corey Frazier’s ORION: Heavenfall follows Jonathan Garrison, a former soldier who is asked to lead a new team of parahuman operatives for ORION, the orbital organization responsible for protecting Earth from global crises. Nearly twenty years after a disaster almost destroyed public trust in ORION, the organization is rebuilding when the anti-parahuman Sworn seize The Bastion, an American research facility filled with experimental technology. Garrison’s team is sent to recover a device capable of locating parahumans across the world, with an ORION engineer trapped inside the facility. Their mission turns increasingly dangerous as the attack exposes weaknesses far beyond the isolated facility. With ORION’s enemies moving on several fronts, Garrison must lead a newly assembled team into a crisis that could change humanity’s relationship with the organization above them.
ORION: Heavenfall is brilliant superhero science fiction, and enormous powers feel completely individual to the people using them. I love Sable Lee’s sonic abilities, especially when she casually turns Andrew Walters’ voice into a squeak during one of their arguments. Eugene Mitchell’s reactive endo-armor is fantastic, shifting through rainbow patterns across his enormous frame whenever it activates. The science fiction elements are creative and blend organically with the superpowers, from Zeeshan’s KAGE prototype, a ninja-inspired combat robot he experiences through a diagnostic headset, to Durga Shell armor that can reconfigure its own components into weapons. The character interactions are just as good, with personalities that are distinct even during the biggest battles. Well-written and wildly imaginative, readers who enjoy superhero teams with space-opera scale will adore this.
