#eBook Phoenix by Ted White & Marion Zimmer Bradley
The story centers around Max, who awakens to find himself endowed with powerful telekinetic abilities and the capacity to manipulate energy at a fundamental level.
This startling discovery occurs in an intense moment involving Fran, a girl who is both close to him and frightened by his powers. As Max struggles to understand his newfound abilities, he grapples with the fear that comes with them, leading to a tumultuous relationship with Fran. Their bond, marked by moments of intimacy and rejection, reveals Max's inner conflict about his powers and the loneliness they bring.
In the climactic conclusion, Max's overwhelming capabilities lead him to a harrowing realization about his own identity and worth, culminating in a symbolic act of self-destruction, leaving Fran to float above her bed in a mystifying state.
The book delves into the psychological and emotional ramifications of wielding such powers, as well as the complexities of human relationships.
