Description:

*Titans of Chaos* completes John Wright's The Chronicles of Chaos. Launched in *Orphans of Chaos--*a Nebula Award Nominee for best novel in 2006, and a *Locus* Year's Best Novel pick for 2005--and continued in *Fugitives of Chaos,* the trilogy is about five orphans raised in a strict British boarding school who discovered that they are not human.      The students have been kidnapped, robbed of their powers, and raised in ignorance by super-beings. The five have made incredible discoveries about themselves. Amelia is apparently a fourth-dimensional being; Victor is a synthetic man who can control the molecular arrangement of matter; Vanity can find secret passageways through solid walls; Colin is a psychic; Quentin is a warlock. Each power comes from a different paradigm or view of the universe. They have learned to control their strange abilities and have escaped into our world: now their true battle for survival begins.        The Chronicles of Chaos is situated in the literary territory of J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter books, and Neil Gaiman's *American Gods*, with some of the flash and dazzle of superhero comics.
