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.
