| Book description |
|
Over twenty years ago, a comet struck the Earth just outside the town of Pederson, Illinois. There were 113 children in utero when the flash hit, and every one of them was affected, gaining extraordinary super-powers as they grew older.
The people of the world, initially worried by what the children might become when they reached adulthood, now fear what they will do with the powers they¹ve gained?and who might suffer should the "rising stars" start to think they could run the world better.

Interesting but I need to read the rest of the series to decide what I really think. (
