"A wild wish fulfillment juvenile romp that should be great fun for 12 year olds of any age." —Piers Anthony, New York Times bestselling fantasy author
Twelve-year-old Tyler Thompson has a secret: he's not a "normal" boy. After his father's tragic death, Tyler finds himself in one predicament after another, until one day he and his faithful dog Maxx fall into a cesspool of mysterious green goop.
When his grandfather bestows him with an object not from this earth, Tyler soon discovers he has strange powers. Unfortunately, so does the sinister Dr. Payne.
Together with his best friend Lukas, who also has a special ability, and Maxx, Tyler embarks on a journey to put an end to Dr. Payne’s evil scheme to control the world's children. To do so, Tyler must make a life-altering choice—one that could change the world.
Excerpt
With blazing speed he dashed out into the middle of the gravel road, arms stretched out and eyes squeezed shut in anticipation of the impact of the vehicle.

A must read for any age!
I absolutely love the book - I am so proud that this author reached his dream. I love all the details he uses from his personal life to enhance the details to allows others to nod their head and say "hey I understand where he is coming from - I can relate to that too!" Who doesn't know a kid like Tyler who is struggling to fit into this crazy world - beautifully written, Laurence! I cannot wait until the next book is available. It is an easy read book that everyone should read. Good job!
Great Book
I throughly enjoyed this book. This book would also be wonderful for younger child/children who enjoy having a book read to them. I used to look for books like this to read a chapter a night to my son. Can't wait for the next book.
I need more...
This book was a fantastic read. It immediately drew me in and I hit a point in which I could not put the book down. It is amazing how much you can relate to scenarios in the book with you encounter in everyday life. If only we all had superpowers to deal with them. As a new Author, this book was fantastic as a debut. I will be anxiously waiting to see what the author follows up with next. Bravo.
