"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!

Go Behind the Scenes with the Creators of Stan Lee’s Alliances: A Trick of Light
First things first, rest in peace Stan Lee
As a longtime fan of Stan Lee and all comics Marvel, I was utterly devastated when his passing was announced. We had lost one of the greatest minds to have ever existed. So you can only imagine that I was thrilled beyond all belief to find out one of the last projects he invested his time and imagination in was an Audible Original. Without dishing out any spoilers, Stan Lee’s Alliances: A Trick of Light was literally one of the funniest and most delightful listens I’ve experienced. Given the chance at internet fame, Cameron is caught up in the eye of a serious situation that gives him supernatural abilities. This leads him to form an unlikely bond with a sheltered, mysterious girl, Nia, who has some pretty interesting powers of her own. The interactions between these out-of-this-world, yet relatable characters are beautifully brought to life by the amazing performance of narrator Yara Shahidi.

Stan Lee created a new kind of super-hero story, one that's really refreshing, yet still typical of Lee's body of work. And, I loved both of our new, super-hero protagonists, Cameron Ackerson and Nia, who are introduced in this book!
I've got my fingers crossed so hard right now, hoping that there's gonna' be another book or two to finish out the overall story ARC...
I hope Stan can hear me from beyond the veil, when I say "thank you, for this final bit of joy, from you to me... to everyone" ! I'd also like to thank Kat Rosenfield, Stan's production team, and the narrator, Yara Shahidi, for harmoniously blending this book into one perfect, and delightful package!
Bless you Stan, for bringing such Joy to so many of us, for so many years. Rest in peace, and harmony!
Thank you for this bit of joy!

I will caution parents that, though the characters are teens, there is a decent amount of language including some of the more intense curse words.
If you don't catch some of the amazing insight about the internet, connectivity and our current and future societal and personal challenges, listen again. There are some gems in this book.
enjoyable and interesting
