Michael Vey

  "To everyone at Meridian High School, Michael Vey seems like an ordinary fourteen year old - he likes waffles and video games, hates homeworks and gets bullied at school.  But Michael is anything but ordinary.  He was born with special electrical powers.

When Michael's best friends, Ostin Liss and chearleader Taylor Ridley, make an accidentally discovery, the trio learns that there are other children with electric powers- and that someone, or something is hunting them.

After Michael's mother is kidnapped, Michael will have to rely on his own wits, powers and friends to combat the powerful Elgen and free his mother."--from the books' website MichealVey.com
