Then there is the Greg Hurwitz Orphan X series about a modern-day Robin Hood. They're heavily reliant on creative use of digital and weapons technology with hearty dashes of psychology and politics. I enjoy them because the protagonist is on the spectrum and is largely unable to function "normally" in relational situations while he has extraordinary abilities spatially and physically. His struggles to relate to others develop as the series goes on, which for me mitigates the violence.

Great, will read it. Have hung back because I feared 'formula writing'.
