The Collector of Souls

About the Book

Would you do anything to rescue your best friend...even kill him?

At 14, superhuman Canyon Terry was the world's mightiest boy. But the young athlete's short temper proves to be his undoing.

Whenever Canyon thinks someone is hurting his family or friends, he does not hesitate to use his immense physical strength and other powers to inflict a gruesome vengeance. But more and more, his efforts are being rebuffed by the very people he thinks he is protecting.

When he is held back from pursuing an attempted killer, Canyon loses all patience, and turns his anger upon his best friend, Western Cobert. Canyon's callousness severs their friendship, and causes Western to fall into the hands of Adam, a demonic youth who takes control of Western's body in his plan to destroy his superhuman rival.

Canyon cannot stop Adam without killing Western as well. Faced with an impossible dilemma, he makes a fateful decision with tragic consequences.

In this sequel to Child Over Human, Canyon finally learns that true superhuman power lies not in brute strength, but in patience, understanding, and love.
