Product Description

The start of an action-packed teen series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Richard Paul Evans.To everyone at Meridian High School, fourteen-year-old Michael Vey is nothing special, just the kid who has Tourette’s syndrome. But in truth, Michael is extremely special—he has electric powers. Michael thinks he is unique until he discovers that a cheerleader named Taylor has the same mysterious powers. With the help of Michael’s friend, Ostin, the three of them set out to discover how Michael and Taylor ended up with their abilities, and their investigation soon brings them to the attention of a powerful group who wants to control the electric teens—and through them, the world.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Richard Paul Evans introduces a character whose risk-filled exploration marks the beginning of a riveting new series. With only his powers, his wits, and his friends to protect him, Michael will need all his strength to survive….

Michael Vey is the first title in Glenn Beck’s Mercury Ink publishing program.

I didn't know what to expect when I began reading this book. I had read every one of Richard Paul Evan's books for adults and children, but couldn't imagine what a young adult book by him would be like. Once I began reading MICHAEL VEY, I couldn't put it down until I was finished, and then only wanted more! The characters are real; you come to know them and feel for them. At times I was at the edge of my seat not knowing what might come next. The battle between good and evil,ethical questions, acceptance of differences, the strength of friendship,the feelings associated with, and the effects of bullying, peer pressure......it's all in here!!! A fabulous read! Waiting for the next book in the series! I have already bought several books to share with friends and family.

Can't wait for the next one....., August 17, 2011

I loved this book. I pre-ordered it for my Kindle after hearing Glenn Beck talk so highly about it - I totally agree with Mr. Beck. It was excellent. I'm not a teenager, by far, but a 40 year old who loves to read. I thought this book was well paced, kept my interest, was a completely unique subject, and left me wanting to read more. What else could one ask for? I just hope it's made into a movie. If you liked the Twilight series or the Hunger Games series, Michael Vey is for you.

Not just for young readers!, August 9, 2011

Wow! I loved Michael Vey, The Prisoner of Cell 25! I was fascinated by the imagination of the author Richard Paul Evans. From one chapter to the next, it totally held MY interest. I found this book to have all the ingredients for a great read... humor among the characters but plenty of adventure and chills too! I am hooked on Michael and his friends with their special powers and am glad this is going to be a series. As a grandma I LOVED this book and will be purchasing it for my grandchildren.
