    About this ebook

    Superhero is a book on the life of Christopher Reeve, by Chris Nickson, author of biographies of David Boreanaz, Melissa Etheridge, and Matt Damon.

    Reeve was well known for his portrayal of Superman, but his acting career was cut short by a horse-riding accident that left him paralyzed. But Reeve continued to live his life as a real-world superhero, and this biography tells his remarkable story.
