Here it is back here in a strange shape since no explanation is given to the sudden onset of gifted children, which makes me say that it's more of a thriller than SF, because the reader SF wants to understand!
By cons I liked the description of the powers of these mutants, here called Abnorms it is not physical powers but only far superior analytical skills to those of normal humans. Moreover, these powers are often limited to one form of intelligence, thereby not having to describe gods (still difficult).
So the hero, Nick Cooper, automatically discerns behavioral correlations that allow it to predict the actions of people that surrounds it. For such it will be another purse will seem easy for him to predict, etc.
So nothing really paranormal.
These nen Abnorms nevertheless represent a huge challenge, ability endanger the whole the organization of society based on the acquisition gradual skill and power. All implied rules of society are threatened by the percent of the population able dacquérir almost instantly elevated positions and thus to push the "old" who currently hold power.
Worse, this potential disruptor does not make them not friendly to the rest of society that mainly feels a great injustice. In short, the terrible segregation dune soil is there and American politicians began to take advantage, as in the rest of the world where Abnorms are DAfter author owned by the state.
Since a dozen of years now the most "intelligent" young Abnorms are removed from their parents and raised in dopaques "centers" from where they emerge often broken. Quune We understand struggle to maintain civil rights are to be developed, this is the object of this novel is a thriller rather well turned my faith.
Nick Cooper dune agency is part of the RAF, specifically with the implied powers of the American police of today, or the power to kill nimporte that without accountability. This is the danger of Abnorms that made this "essential" policy, and the atrocities already committed by John Smith.
But John Smith is a master of strategy and managed to remain free for years. Following a new atrocity, Nick decides to pretend to defect in order to get hold of John, we will learn so much more about this strange world, with a huge surprise at the end.
Surprise that will not be a nen for regulars classic American phobias, the usual limit of exercise. I'll add that the confiscation of children from their families in a democratic regime seemed completely crazy and my absurd.
Other than that the book is nervous, pleasant and multidimensional Heroes, but the suite is unfortunately ignored.
Read American.
