Plot synopsis

As the futuristic city-state of Metropia is threatened by a mysterious riot, eighteen-year-old Kit Walker discovers he is to become the The 24th Phantom, whether he likes it or not.

In the summer of 2040, Kit Walker is an ordinary, 18-year-old university student whose life is unexpectedly changed when he is sought by Guran, a mysterious African who has returned to the city-state of Metropia for the first time since Kit's father disappeared sixteen years earlier. But before Guran can contact Kit, deadly robotic Biots attempt to kill Guran, wounding Kit's Aunt Heloise. Kit's investigation of the attack takes him deep beneath the city's streets where he discovers a remarkable underground jungle. Here, Kit finds Guran, who reveals that Kit's destiny is to become the 24th Phantom in an unbroken line that began in Africa in 1566. At first, Kit wants no part of becoming the Phantom. But that night he uses his new Phantom equipment to inadvertently stop an inexplicable riot that threatens the city. After his success, Kit reluctantly decides he has no choice but to accept his new role. Though he has no idea what it means to be the Phantom, he believes he is going to learn quickly.
