Tesla's Attic by Neal Shusterman and Eric Elfman

I am a BIG fan of Neal Shusterman (author of the Unwind trilogy) and this latest book, co-authored by Eric Elfman, didn't disappoint.  This is going to be a great series.  Tesla's Attic is the first book in the Accelerati Trilogy.  Nick and his father and brother have moved into an old Victorian mansion after a fire destroyed old house and took his mother's life.  He discovers what he thinks is just a lot of old junk in the attic, but soon finds out that the old junk has some pretty amazing powers.  All the objects seem to have been invented by Nikola Tesla.  Now Nick and his friends (a great cast of characters) are trying to keep the objects from getting into the hands of a secret society.  I really enjoyed the creativity of this book.  I am sure the authors had a lot of fun coming up with what each object could do.  I am looking forward to the next book which is due out in February 2015.
