    Energy Wars, Book 2 - Metamorphosis: Book Cover

    Energy Wars, Book 2 – Metamorphosis

    Written by Jodi Dee

    Illustrated by Steve Goad

    Ages: 10-14 | 218 Pages

    Publisher: Jodi Dee Publication (2026) | ISBN: 978-1-7362093-4-9

    What to Expect: Superpowers, technology, emotions, friendship, adventure.

    In this exciting sequel to Energy Wars: The Awakening, Myles takes the adventure further in his fight against life-sucking technology.

    Myles has a superpower—he can see the energy in everything. That means he can see how energy moves about, especially between people. When he first got his superpower, he used it to destroy the new phone that was draining the life energy from his friend Ethan and all the other kids around him. However, simply destroying one phone isn’t enough—there are still hundreds more in production! Now Myles and his friends are on their way to California, where the phones are being produced. Stopping their release will test the friends’ abilities to the max—but with the might of a multi-billion-dollar corporation ranged against them, even superpowers might not be enough to save the world this time.

    Myles is a relatable, ordinary kid, and readers will enjoy seeing his knowledge and wisdom about emotions and energy grow and become more complex in this second book. His relationships with his friends are also developing, making this as much a coming-of-age novel as it is a thrilling save-the-world quest. From mysterious henchmen called “grays” to phone hacking and a seriously battle-ready chauffeur, the story has all the trappings of an action-packed spy novel, with the high-stakes plotline to match. As they enjoy the ride, however, readers will also learn subtle lessons about how their emotions and actions impact those around them—and how to manage personal energy wisely.

    Exciting and insightful, this sequel does not disappoint.
