Summary
Odd John: A Superhuman Odyssey
John Wainwright is not like us. He’s a mutation, blessed (or cursed) with an intelligence that dwarfs the average human mind, making him both awe-inspiring and terrifying.
To him, ordinary humans are mere playthings. Odd John harbors a grand design: to forge a new world order, a society of supernormal beings.
But is humanity ready for such a radical evolution?
