Child over Human First edition

Canyon Terry, 14, was enjoying life, growing up in his little hometown of Vassalboro. Popular and athletic, he was already achieving local fame as Buchanan High School's top JV wrestler. One day, he discovers that he possesses superhuman powers which give him tremendous physical strength, as well as the miraculous ability to heal the sick and raise the dead. But much to the boy's confusion, he lacks control over his powers, and is incapable of summoning them on his own. Canyon later learns that these same powers are now threatening to turn him into a demonic monster that no power on earth can stop. When his gift turns out to be a curse, Canyon must somehow seek out the mysterious beings who gave him his powers or, destroy himself to protect the ones he loves.
