Synopsis

Set four years after the events of Strings, Currents finds the Ables gang about to start their second year at Goodspeed University. Phillip is struggling more than ever with anxiety and PTSD, and he continues to feel tremendous guilt over the loss of a friend. It's haunting him. He's having vivid nightmares, passing out frequently, and starting to question his role in the world.

On top of all that, he's taking his first public speaking course, and the learning curve is steep—though he does make a new friend in the class. Phillip also finds himself truly blind once again, with no one to give him even temporary sight. He and his girlfriend, Emmaline, have created a sort of shorthand that allows her to communicate enemy positions so that Phillip can still be an effective crime fighter. Sherpa, his dog, is proving just as helpful during hero work as she is in the day-to-day things Phillip needs help with.

There's more distance between Phillip and Bentley now, and the reasons aren't entirely understood by either of them. As Phillip tries to keep it together and rebuild an old friendship, the group of college heroes chases a new energy-hoarding villain across the globe, desperate to understand the danger in time to stop it. By the end, few of them will ever be the same.

Goodreads review by Luke

It's been 4 years since the events of the 2nd book. Wow. The Ables be old!! The meat of this book was more about mental health and dealing with trauma than superhero stuff. It's cool. I've never seen superheros with this angle before. It's another solid addition to the series. I have no idea where the......more

Damn you, Jeremy… stop poking my feels! >.< Such a great book. Amazing depiction of mental health and PTSD and therapy without that stereotypical bias. Even to the point where Philip complains it’s not working then gets called out for not bothering to do any of what his therapist says will help him.......more

Goodreads review by A.M.

With each new installment in the Ables trilogy, the story and character development get even better. The way this book (an series as a whole) handles mental health and disabilities should be applauded. While this book ended perfectly, I will always be secretly hoping for more in the Ables universe.......more

Goodreads review by Meryl

It’s nice to see real growth from the characters and in writing style/quality. I’m a little disappointed in the ending but overall I liked this book the most of the 3. (Well I like the story in 1 the most but the writing style made it hardest to read).......more
