I liked the style and the good-guys were interesting. Sadly the basic premise was flawed.
It would have been interesting to explore an internal conflict in the good guys, as they fought their artificially strengthened violent tendencies.

Supposedly, the alien agent was creating an extra violent, super-powered strain of human in order to wipe out the rest of the race. So why were the enhanced humans unchanged emotionally? I couldn't see any difference in mentality... just ability.It would have been interesting to explore an internal conflict in the good guys, as they fought their artificially strengthened violent tendencies.

Hard to believe this was written by the same person who wrote Odyssey One. Couldn't get past the scene setting with all the motorcycle tropes.

Notes:
Yay for libraries!
Not the best narration by Kevin T. Collins. Mostly good with a few awkward pronunciations and stuff.
Story was fun! Cheesy/corny goodness with superheroes.

Great Read
Great read with a lot of fast paced action. Believe in Superman,maybe this how he really gets started. Starts a bit slow at first but leads to the action quickly.

I guess alien probe+junk DNA+quantum mechanics is somehow more plausible than poisonous spider bite as an explanation for super powers. Barely. Accepting the premise, Currie's Superhuman books are reasonably well written superhero adventure stories.
