tl;dr: The 'Legion' series is an interesting take on a genius with multiple personalities.
The protagonist is Stephen Leeds. His genius is sought after by everyone - from the person on the street to governments. He has one small quirk though - he hallucinates multiple personalities that he calls 'aspects'. They are created whenever Stephen needs to learn some new skill which he does by reading books or observation. Each of these aspects contains a set of talents, have their own identity and are visible only to Stephen. The aspects also suffer from some kind of neuroses or the other. Some memorable ones are J.C. a redneck ex-SEAL who has an unhealthy obsession for guns, Ivy - a psychologist who moderates the other aspects and Tobias - an elder statesman like aspect who specializes in history. According to Stephen, he is not crazy since his hallucinations do not incapacitate him. Still, he considers most of his aspects crazy, though. (review continued at my site linked below)
