Our Review
This high-voltage adventure plunges readers into a world where the very energy that powers our cities is also the source of life for a hidden society. When a teenage protagonist discovers they can manipulate electricity, they are thrust into a conflict between those who want to harness this power for good and a shadowy corporation determined to weaponize it. The narrative crackles with kinetic action sequences and explores the literal and metaphorical cost of power, making complex themes of energy consumption and personal responsibility accessible to a young adult audience. It's a supercharged coming-of-age story that asks what we are willing to sacrifice to keep the lights on.
The novel's greatest strength lies in its unique fusion of science fiction and urban fantasy, grounding its extraordinary premise in a gritty, recognizable world. Teen readers who feel a constant, buzzing connection to their devices will find a powerful allegory for their own plugged-in lives and the draining nature of modern connectivity. The protagonist's journey from confusion to mastering their chaotic abilities provides a compelling parallel to the turbulence of adolescence itself. Ultimately, this is a thought-provoking and energizing read that will leave its audience seeing the hum of electricity in an entirely new, and potentially dangerous, light.
