I forgot this one: "After the Golden Age" Carrie Vaughn - Normal girl grows up with superhero parents. (Seemed like a young adult novel.) http://www.carrievaughn.com/aga.html

Recently: "Beautiful Children" Charles Bock - Runaways in Las Vegas circa early 2000's http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/27/magazine/27Bock-t.html?_r=1&adxnnl=1&oref=slogin&adxnnlx=1311978405-CMGft4o45TTd77g9ZbqQxA http://www.beautifulchildren.net/site/ "Killing Time" Caleb Carr - Speculative fiction regarding the near-future http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_Time_(Caleb_Carr_novel) Killing Time is a dystopian novel by Caleb Carr set in the Mid-21st Century. It was initially serialized in TIME and later published in 2000 by Random House. It includes criticisms of the information age (see quotes below). The book was a departure for Carr, whose previous two novels (and his subsequent one) were crime thrillers set in the Victorian era. "Mundus vult decipi" is a Latin phrase meaning "The world wants to be deceived" "It is the greatest truth of our age: Information is not knowledge."
