And he’s not the only one… a powerful surge of energy has swept the planet and affected a very tiny percentage of the population, and certain government employees are in a race to find these changed individuals and see exactly what it is they can do.Ī small team of US citizens is pulled together and put to the test–can they learn to control their powers and work together as a team? It’s the answer to those two questions that made the book so enjoyable to me. During this event, Frank is changed… he is able to “absorb” the knowledge and skills of someone he touches when they die. Now, Martinez has a begun a new trilogy that is set during the Cold War where the term “super powers” refers to both the countries involved in the Cold War and a small set of individuals called Variants who are displaying some amazing talents that their governments wish to exploit.Īt the tail end of World War II, soldier Frank Lodge falls into the hands of a Nazi scientist who is performing an experiment that will be world-changing. Martinez won me over with his Daedalus Trilogy that features sailing ships moving between the planets in an alternate universe that has collided with a slightly more familiar universe (where we’ve reached Mars) and the heroes who have discovered something evil that threatens both realities.
