Cover of Kevin Brooks: iBoy (ePUB)
A Wi Fi, WTF thriller from the author of Candy. "Intelligent and fast-moving, cleverly shifts between comic-book thrills and touching realism." -The New York Times Book Review What can he do with his new powers-and what are they doing to him?Before the attack, Tom Harvey was just an average teen. But a head-on collision with high technology has turned him into an actualized App. Fragments of a shattered i Phone are embedded in his brain. And they’re having an extraordinary effect on his every thought.Because now Tom knows, sees, and can do more than any normal boy ever could. But with his new powers comes a choice: To avenge Lucy, the girl he loves, will he hunt down the vicious gangsters who hurt her? Will he take the law into his own electric hands and exterminate them from the South London housing projects where, by fear and violence, they rule?Not even his mental search engine can predict the shocking outcome of i Boy’s actions."The classic superhero plot, at once cutting edge sci-fi and moral fable." -Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"Brooks is a master at revealing the unsteady fault line between good and evil." -Booklist (starred review)"Brilliant, harrowing, uplifting . . . with a passionate truth. If I were a producer, I’d option i Boy immediately. This is the big one. Bravo!" -The London Times"Brooks delivers something that’s less a work of science fiction than a brutal rumination on vengeance, near-limitless power, and their effects on people, with believably flawed characters and a harsh setting that serve the story well." -Publishers Weekly
