If Aiden Manchester had to have a superpower, why couldn't it be something useful like predicting the future? Or Jedi mind tricks? Instead, he's afflicted with manifestations, balls of goo which materialise in midair while he sleeps. If Aiden Manchester had to have a superpower, why couldn't it be something useful? Like predicting the future? Or Jedi mind tricks? Instead, Aiden is afflicted with 'manifestations', mysterious balls of goo which materialise mid-air while he sleeps. But then, Aiden learns he was a 'Quiver Kid', one of seven orphaned children drafted for an illicit experiment at Tau Nine-One. Setting out to find the perpetrators and his fellow victims, Aiden's quest quickly turns lethal when he's kidnapped by a maniacal Quiver Kid with a dark agenda. As he uncovers the dangerous truth about his past, Aiden's very essence is called into question.
