Resumen del Editor

"Leave it to Stan Lee to save his very best for last. A Trick of Light is as heartfelt and emotional as it is original and exciting. What a movie this one will make."(James Patterson)

"Beguiling, cinematic, operatic, A Trick of Light is a bracing espresso first thing in the morning and the thrum of a familiar love deep at night." (Gary Shteyngart)

In one of Stan Lee’s final collaborations and most innovative works, the legendary creator invites you to unleash the power of your imagination, and bring to life an epic, superhero origin story set within a tech-centric, highly connected world, unnervingly reminiscent of our own.

Narrated by Yara Shahidi, one of today’s brightest talents, Stan Lee’s Alliances: A Trick of Light introduces listeners to a mysterious young woman, Nia, whose fate is intertwined with a seemingly ordinary Midwestern teenager, Cameron Ackerson, whose quest for YouTube stardom takes him to the heart of the Great Lakes Triangle where he is imbued with the power to "see" and "hear" a new reality.

As Nia and Cameron’s relationship grows, they conspire to create a more righteous online universe, but wind up crossing a shadowy outfit called OPTIC. Meanwhile, a threat of galactic proportions emerges, imperiling humanity’s very existence by harnessing our individual desire to connect as the very means to destroy us.

Can Nia, Cameron, and Juaquo (Cameron’s best friend) save us from our own collective ruin?

Join forces with Stan Lee to find out!

Riveting Adventure

This story was an amazing experience. It has a sci-fi, Ready Player One/Matrix/X-men feel to it. It was exciting and hard to find a good stopping place to continue with reality. The introduction by Stan Lee was fun and beautiful and really got me pumped for the story to begin. Highly recommend!

Spectacular

Alliances is a never ending thrill ride. If this is truly Stan Lee's final project, it is a spectacular tribute to his talent as a writer and creator of characters we want to cheer on. Cameron, Nia, and Juaquo pull you in and by the end of the story you're begging for a "book 2" and a series of more. Fighting multiple villains or frienemies keeps the listener on the edge of your seat. This book is not just for fans of Stan Lee. Anyone who loves adventure and suspense will want this book.

technically advance with roots in love

Where does technology fit into our humanness? Are we allowing technology to feed us rather than allowing our humanness to balance technology. What are the results in our own lives, in the lives of our children? Cart or horse? Listen and then review these questions again.

Just okay

I was pretty excited about reading something created by Stan Lee, but the plot never took off for me. I have about 3 hours left in the book, and I don't think I will finish it.

Narrators pacing.

I really enjoyed the story, but Yara's pacing I felt was a bit slow and drawn. Personal gripe, overall I really liked it and look forward to the next one.

Enjoyed it. The narrator is a little flat in places, but she's young and that was the right voice for the book.
