My name is Landon Wicker. Almost a year ago, I learned I was
psychokinetic. I can lift objects with my mind, hear people's
thoughts, and even fly if I concentrate hard enough. Because of
what I am, I was brought to a secret facility-the Gymnasium-where,
with hundreds of others like me, I am trained in how to control my
abilities. Then, six months ago, I was recruited into the Pantheon,
an elite group of psychokinetics who secretly work for the U.S.
government, running operations to maintain the nation's security
and superiority. I thought I was doing my part. I thought I'd found
a way to redeem myself after killing my parents. But then I met
Artemis, super spy and number one threat to the Pantheon. How could
I have known she was also one of my best friends? She showed me the
truth. The Pantheon and the Gymnasium may not be what they claimed.
. . . And I might actually be the enemy I thought I was fighting
against. Now, I'm a double agent working with Artemis to find a way
to bring them down. But no one said it would be easy, and with
every discovery, the extent of the Gymnasium's lies and deception
only deepens. I'm beginning to wonder if we'll ever find a way to
stop them.
Consumed with guilt after a horrible tragedy, LANDON WICKER is
forced into a life where teenagers can lift city buses with their
minds and people don't just see-but control-the world around them.
Landon struggles to accept his new reality but finds solace in the
company of hundreds of teenagers just like him when he's taken to a
secret training facility for psychokinetics-the Gymnasium. But
everything changes after a chance encounter with a mysterious girl.
She propels Landon on a hunt for answers about the true nature of
his abilities and his new home, and he soon uncovers some dark
truths the Gymnasium would do anything to keep hidden. Will he
discover the truth? What is hidden in the Restricted Tower? And who
is Artemis? Landon must choose where his loyalties lie, while he
comes to terms with his past-and his future.
