Genius Squad
Sometimes, when it comes to fighting evil, one genius just isn't enough. Cadel Piggott's been having a hard time since he chose to be good rather than evil. He doesn't know where he was born. He doesn't know who his father is. And he's under constant threat from Prosper English - the criminal mastermind he helped to put in gaol. Will Genius Squad be the answer to all Cadel's prayers? Or is he right to question their motives? Deciding what's good and bad is more difficult than Cadel could ever have imagined...

Cadel Piggott is genius with a knack for systems. He can do just about anything: disable home security systems, hack into government databases and commit credit card fraud. When Cadel gets introduced to a group of genetically enhanced misfits who are determined to take over the world, he finds himself in a world of trouble. Cadel must determine which path he'll choose, how to protect his threatened nearest and dearest, and how to fight genius with genius.
With engrossing plots that twist and turn, these highly-awarded, high-tech thrillers are filled with darkness and humour, freaks, geeks and super-villains.
