Power Within introduces us to the Lazarus Children, special individuals whose DNA holds the key to unlocking the power within. Be the power telekinesis, empathy, enhanced physicality, fire-starting, etc. Charlie Gordon's powers were unlocked the day she nearly died in a vicious storm at sea. She's been doing everything she can to suppress them for the 10 years since their appearance. Now her time has run out and she needs to learn to unlock and control her powers before enemies she never knew existed capture her. Yet how can she stay one step ahead when she's being betrayed at every turn?Power Within is a excellent novel, always keeping you on the edge of your seat! I loved the characters (even the bad guys) and the story flowed smoothly - full of action, intrigue, and wicked cool powers. I felt that Charlie was very mature and down-to-earth considering everything she'd gone through. One note: some of the spelling and grammar could use a polish, but it doesn't truly detract from the story. Due to the way Power Within ended, I cannot wait for the next book in The Lazarus Children series!!The Lazarus Children Series: Power Within (1)
