Sixteen-year-old Marcus thought missing the bus was going to be the worst part of his day.

Then he found something that should not exist.

A mysterious meteorite shard fuses itself to Marcus, awakening a strange energy inside him. Soon, his body can absorb energy, generate intense heat, and unleash powerful kinetic force. But controlling these abilities is harder than Marcus ever imagined.

With the help of a former Aegis Dynamics engineer, Marcus begins learning how to control the power growing inside him. But Aegis Dynamics knows the meteorite shard has been found—and they will stop at nothing to get it back.

As Marcus struggles to protect himself, the people he cares about, and his city, he discovers that the shard may be only one piece of something much bigger.

Marcus is learning to control his power.

Someone else is waking up.

And the next threat may be far more dangerous than he is prepared for.
