Brilliance by Marcus Sakey

5.0

I was recommended this book by a friend and it sounded interesting so I figured I'd check it out. It was a great concept of people developing "super powers" but in a "realistic" way. I'd like to think that it might be possible in the future (albeit distant future) to develop gifts that are just enhancements of our senses. I also thought there was a lot of hidden (or maybe not so hidden) commentary about today's society. Basically it was a great mix of sci-fi, action, spies, betrayal, love, and everything else.
