Quantum Prophecy series.
Teen superhumans Danny and Colin (The Awakening, The Gathering) are racing to save the world from corrupt national governments while simultaneously coping with the development of their new superpowers and also testing their own loyalties. There's plenty of good old-fashioned comic-book action coaxing the clunky plot along to its cliffhanger ending.

Quantum Prophecy series.
In this futuristic tale, the previous generation of superheroes has lost its powers, the new generation's are appearing, and somebody's out to stop them all. There's a lot of series setup; this title spends too much time on background and not enough on the kids' adventures. The interesting premise, however, will draw in sci-fi fans eager to find out what happens next.
