Lucas is a genius and can easily remember anything he has ever read along with so much more, but that is not all there is to him. In fact, he is a low-level telekinetic meaning that he can move small objects with his mid. Because of this his entire world is about to change, and not for the better.
Due to this his parents were murdered and he finds himself in something called The Institute where they are running tests and giving them all kinds of injections. There doesn't seem to be any escape as himself and other kids are slowly being turned into batteries for what the people who work there consider the saving of humanity. What will it take for these kids to get back some kind of a life or is becoming a gork (brainless kid just used as a battery-pack) as good as it will get?
As always King does not fail to deliver. Personally this book reminded me of one of my favorite King books, Firestarter, although that was The Shop. For once I am actually glad that King didn't use Derry in this book. Derry feels like a home away from home and somehow putting this place in that town wouldn't have been right. I have already suggested this book to multiple of my friends who are also lovers of King, but honestly this is a great book for anyone.
I hope you enjoy this book as much as I have. This book is available on Amazon for $14.99 at https://amzn.to/3kF6e6y.
