Powerless

Daniel Learns What It Means to Be a Hero — Even with No Superpowers! Superhero kids meet comic-book mystery in this action-filled novel about what it truly means to be a hero! Twelve-year-old Daniel, the new kid in Noble's Green, Pennsylvania, soon learns the truth about his nice — but odd — new friends: one can fly, another can turn invisible, yet another controls electricity. The superkids use their powers to secretly do good in the town, but they're haunted by the knowledge that the moment they turn 13, their abilities will disappear — along with any memory that they ever had them. Is a memory-stealing supervillain sapping their powers? The answers lie in a long-ago meteor strike, a World War II-era comic book, the green-flamed Witch Fire, a hidden Shroud cave, and — possibly, unbelievably — a completely "powerless" regular kid like Daniel himself.
