The Steel Falcon book 1: Awakening by N.K. Quinn

A below-average underdog. A supercharged crime-fighter. Their shared secret could transform the world. Kalum Walker lives in the shadow of his older brother. Scrawny and prone to panic attacks, he’s a far cry from the superheroes he doodles in his notebook. When his brother steals his meds to help calm his game time nerves, he doesn’t put up a fight. But without his pills, Kalum’s blackouts begin getting worse… and a disturbing voice inside his head starts urging him into some dangerous situations.
After a near fatal encounter he starts to notice mysterious bruises all over his body. As he learns of a masked crusader serving up justice outside the Corporation compound, he realizes the vigilante bears a striking resemblance to his sketches. Locked in a battle with the voice in his head, Kalum must solve the mystery of the Steel Falcon and save his brother before he loses control forever.

Teaming up with the heroic voice in his head may have been a bad idea…
After making an uneasy alliance with the voice in his head, Kalum Walker’s life has started to turn around. He has a starting position on the Henkan team, a crime-fighting alter ego, and a date with the hot new girl in school. But as his alter ego fights an increasing number of violent attacks, he can feel himself losing the battle to the being who shares his body.
And the lines between his personas blur even further when he uncovers a conspiracy to conduct experiments on his teammates’ minds that somehow relates to his ex-scientist father. With his own sense of self slipping away, Kalum must uncover the dangerous truth behind his father’s legacy to save his friends and preserve his sanity before they’re all lost forever.
Synergy is the second novel in the exhilarating Steel Falcon YA sci-fi superhero series.
