Invasion: Book One of the Secret World Chronicle

The world had become used to the metahumans-people sometimes perfectly ordinary, but sometimes quite extraordinary in appearance-who mostly worked with their governments as high-powered peace officers, fighting crime, and sometimes fighting rogue metahumans who had become super-criminals.

Suddenly, all world governments were simultaneously attacked by soldiers in giant mecha robotic suits with the swastika symbol of the Third Reich on their metal arms.

Weapons against which even the metahuman heroes seemed to be helpless...
