A Superhero Called Doberman

The Superhero Doberman #1 / 3
by Shami Stovall, John Stovall
A Superhero Called Doberman (The Superhero Doberman #1) by Shami Stovall, John Stovall
Unrated

Leon Lewis is essentially the reincarnation of Anubis, but the idiot street thugs don’t know what a jackal is, so they call him “Doberman” instead…

Which works out, because in this new age of superheroes, most names are copyrighted.

It all started thirty-one years ago…

Humans began being born with a new organ called the “facet gland,” which mutated their bodies and granted them superhuman abilities. Each person’s power is unique, but one fact quickly emerged: these abilities were subject to progression and advancement, much like building muscles through exercise.

Complex powers even follow a tier system with multiple improvement paths. And while some use their gifts to benefit humanity, others embrace unprecedented villainy.

Leon grew up idolizing heroes like Nova, Glitter Ninja, and Japan’s fan-favorite Shine Shine Hero. But his own abilities are dangerous, and could harm random people, so he lives in isolation in a cramped apartment.

That is, until his neighbor, Rachel Anderson, is targeted by the Kings in Yellow—a mysterious street gang infamous for making people vanish.

Leon can’t stand by and do nothing, but activating his abilities might prove fatal…

Because Anubis is death to friends and foes alike.

A litRPG adventure for fans of Super Powereds by Drew Hayes or Villain Core by John Stovall!

Shami Stovall

Shami Stovall

In a world where magic and myth meet sharp intellect and historical nuance, Shami Stovall stands out as a voice that knows how to twist the familiar into something entirely unexpected. Whether she’s breathing new life into war-torn battlefields or crafting magical academies from scratch, her stories pulse with a vibrant energy—equal parts heart, grit, and wonder.

Raised in Salt Lake City and grounded in a deep love of history and law, Stovall brings a thoughtful, richly layered approach to fantasy and science fiction. Her background—teaching history and criminal law after earning a BA in History and a Juris Doctorate—adds a distinctive texture to her worlds. The politics, conflicts, and character choices in her books often echo real-world dilemmas, but they’re refracted through the lens of griffins, arcanists, and ancient powers long buried.

Her breakout Frith Chronicles series isn’t just about magic—it’s about earning it. Following Volke Savan, an outsider with everything to prove, the series explores themes of belonging, self-worth, and the price of ambition. It’s a story that resonates with readers who crave more than surface-level adventure. The same emotional depth and fast-paced tension can be found in her Ethereal Squadron and Chronos Chronicles—each series unafraid to question what makes a hero, and what a person is willing to sacrifice to become one.

Stovall’s voice is unmistakable—clear, clever, and emotionally grounded. She doesn’t just build fantastical settings; she anchors them with moral complexity, layered characters, and stakes that go far beyond winning a battle or passing a trial.

Now based in Kansas, she continues to expand her magical universes with new installments like Labyrinth Arcanist and Words of Power, stories that continue to deepen her legacy as a writer who delivers both spectacle and soul.

For readers who love epic fantasy with real emotional resonance, richly built magic systems, and characters who linger long after the last page, Shami Stovall offers a world well worth falling into.
