Sam Watkins, an orphaned young teenager, possesses the ability to read the minds of almost everyone he meets. Howard Lyons, the owner of the orphanage where Sam has lived since he was a baby, has been reluctant to let Sam leave the orphanage.

Wow. That went from omg-where-on-earth-is-this-story-going to i-can't-flick-the-epages-fast-enough-see-how-it-unfolds... and thank goodness it did!

Seriously, I was initially worried...I mean the story of Sam the orphan, his friends, and the orphan to business mogul to orphanage founder, Mr Lyons (one of them anyway), was moving and pulled at the heartstrings somewhat, but I was looking for more, so when it delivered, I was hooked. You see, Sam isn't your average young man, orphan status aside... but he's not the only one that isn't all he seems and those others, may not have the best intentions. There are bigger things at work here and god complexes, of a sort, to be explored... think you can tell the friends from the foes?

Recommended for older Kids Fiction to Young Adult fans and beyond for concepts explored and morals questioned.
