Book Review By Tami Rodgers
Amplified by C. Todd Cleveland

Brendan Mason discovered his special abilities by accident. Following a tragic automobile accident, he was left in a coma which allowed his subconcious mind to develop his abilities without conscious repression. Ten years later, he is an important research subject for a facility known at The Conservatory. During a governmental investigation, files were stolen that held proof of his abilities. He was thrown into a government conspiracy bent on harnessing his powers. He must fight against his adversaries in order to protect his abilities and those he cares for the most.
