Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Ables is a Young Adult novel written by Jeremy Scott, one of the founders of CinemaSins.Philip Sallinger is blind, and telekinetic. The last part surprises him; his father tells him. Only one problem: no one thinks that Phillip is cut out to be a hero due to his blindness, and the school system puts him in a special needs class for those with powers. Determined to prove his bullies wrong, Phillip forms a hero team within the special needs class, while a mysterious man targets him.It was followed by two sequels, Strings, in 2019 and Currents in 2020, as well as an Interquel comic entitled The Hero's Journey which takes place between the first two books. The fourth and final book is planned to release in 2022.

Always Save the Girl: Subverted. Though Phillip is tempted, he can't bring himself to surrender to the Finch to save his mother because he doesn't believe he's the chosen one that Finch thinks he is, and because he promised his father he would send a distress signal for help. Then Finch reveals he lied and wasn't planning to restore Mrs. Sallinger's life, in the hopes of awakening Phillip's latent powers.

Asshole Victim: Subverted. Phillip is horrified when the Finch murders Steve just because he happens to be standing in his way. Steve was a bully, but by no means deserving to be killed during a training exercise.

Ascended Extra: In the first book, Penelope was just a classmate of the team and not a member. In Strings, she's Bentley's girlfriend and one of the members of the Ables.
