Michael Vey: Prisoner in Cell 25

I enjoyed the first installment in Richard Paul Evans' new series about children with special powers.  It reminded me of Patterson's Maximum Ride series.  A hospital accident left a group of babies with electrical powers.  As teenagers, they are now being hunted and used for experimentation to create a super-race.  Michael and a few others resist.  It is an exciting storyline with very likable characters.  I was worried it would be too mature for K-5, but other than some crushes, it was benign.  I can not say the same for its sequels as I have not read them yet.
