The explosive finale to the Extraordinaries trilogy by New York Times bestselling author TJ Klune!
Schoolās out for the summer and a raging, malevolent heat has blanketed Nova City. Dark, twisted, probably evil shadows have drenched the doorsteps of her good peopleās homes. And Nicholas Bellāfanboy, hero, ADHD-haverāis being super dramatic again.
But honestly, Nickās life is pretty much perfect. Yeah, itās hot out, but he finally gets to team up and train with his steamy superhero boyfriend to bring justice, protection, and disaster energy to the people of Nova City. Itās everything heās ever dreamed of!
With graduation on the horizon and his future unknowable, Nick focuses on enjoying the present. Seth, Jazz, and Gibby are busy setting up headquarters for Lighthouse, their hero team. Nickās dad has partnered with former chief of police Rodney Caplan to start a new private investigation agency. And Nickās mother, the superhero known as TK, is right there at Nickās side. Where sheās always been.
Hasnāt she?
But somethingās off. Itās not just Simon Burke running for mayor and campaigning to ācureā Extraordinaries. And itās not even the rumors that Nickās ex-boyfriend and villain-in-the-making Owen Burke has escaped.
Something else isnāt right, and Nick will need all his friends and loved ones together to
uncover the truth before Nova City falls prey to the Burke family.
A truth that will reveal a traitor in their midst and burn through their lives like a wildfire.

What reviewers said
āIs it possible to fall in love with someoneās imagination? If so, consider me fully smitten. TJ Klune creates worlds where fear and threat can be conquered by kindness, and a tender, queer heart is more valuable than any weapon or power.ā
"Truly, Heat Wave is a bittersweet book in the best way. Itās incredibly hard to say goodbye to this lively, fantastic group of characters, yes, but they get the hopeful, inspiring ending theyāve fought hard for and absolutely deserve.With Kluneās trademark concoction of heart and hilarity, Heat Wave is the explosive, absurd and ingenious conclusion to the Extraordinaries trilogy. With loads of fluff, secondhand embarrassment, and a whole lot of platonic and romantic love, Heat Wave will give its characters the emotional, uplifting ending they (and the readers) deserve."
āThe last installment of the Extraordinaries trilogy is everything a devoted fan could want.... This book is jammed with plot twists, making it a real page-turner. Klune also doesnāt shy away from incorporating real-life events into his story.... A touching, utterly satisfying conclusion.ā
