iBoy the not [[Hollywood Science|completely realistic]] but [[So Cool Its Awesome|awesome]] story of a boy called Tom Harvey who has an iPhone dropped on his head from a 30-floor council flat and develops superpowers from the pieces lodged in his brain. These powers include: [[Shock and Awe|control over electricity]], access to the entire internet just by the power of thought (as well as the phone lines), somehow the knowledge to hack anything on the internet and listen in on anyone's conversations and [[Barrier Warrior|electric force-fields.]]
The same person who threw the iPhone was also involved in [[Rape
Notable for being literature for older teens but exploring some incredibly dark themes, as well as realisticly exploring the psychological effects the main character experiences.
