Talent Storm - a dystopian post apocalyptic

Hundreds of years after the Great World War, America is a distant memory. In the ashes, new civilizations have risen up from the Wilds. Locke's Coalition and Liberty Kingdom, bitter enemies, have been at peace for seven years. War is never far from politicians' minds, though, especially when one is the tyrant Archduke Goldwater. For all of human kinds' positive traits, the character flaws of corruption, greed, anger, and revenge are etched into our DNA.
In the new world, little technology remains and advanced weapons are in short supply, but today's soldiers fight with innate power. They fight with Talent... the psionic powers that develop in a random few.
A young Coalition citizen, Jaden Stone, dreams of graduating, having fun, and falling in love. As if his hard-nosed uncle, schoolyard bullies, and exams weren't hard enough to handle, he discovers that he wields Talent. He'd now be forced to serve in the military, forced to train and fight, all for an organization that killed his parents.
Will Jaden work hard for his people or will his desire for leisure win over? He's forced to decide when a tragedy shakes his core.
