The exciting and action packed opening chapter to the Remarkable Owen Johnson story.
Owen's day was progressing just as it did for most other teenagers. By lunchtime he had climbed a tall building using abilities usually reserved for superheroes; he had flirted with the girl he had secretly adored for years; he had come home to find his dad had been kidnapped and a mysterious stranger standing in his living room; and finally he had been rescued by the elderly woman from next door who had suddenly revealed that she had the power to launch people through the air.
"The Remarkables" introduces Owen Johnson to the world of a group of seemingly ageless war heroes, each possessing unique gifts that had been used to fight evil. Now they must help Owen find his dad, and uncover a new threat to our way of life. Along their journey Owen slowly starts to learn the secrets of his past, and discovers surprising truths about himself and those that he thought he knew; some of which he is glad to learn, some he may wish that he had not.
