In the fall of 1984, Cold War tensions between Washington and Moscow are close to breaking.
But in sleepy Gainesville, Florida, fourteen-year-old Janis Graystone
is mainly worried about starting high school, earning a spot on the
varsity soccer team, and keeping her older sister from running her life.
And then there are her nighttime experiences. Experiences where she
awakens in her backyard—out of her body—with the disturbing sense that
someone is watching her.
For Scott Spruel,
the start of high school means the chance to start over. And he’s
willing to ditch everything—computer hacking, Dungeons & Dragons
marathons, even his comic book collection (well, except for his
X-Men)—if it means getting closer to Janis, the secret love of his life.
But will Scott’s past be so easy to shed. And what about the eerie
delay on his telephone, a delay he senses through powers he is only
beginning to understand?
Welcome to the gripping new series, XGeneration: part The X-Files, part Freaks and Geeks, and totally '80s.
Rated 16+ for language.
Brad Magnarella
grew up in North Central Florida. As a boy he discovered Marvel Comics,
text-based gaming, Bruce Springsteen, and Stephen King, roughly in that
order. The prize, however, was a creek that wound through his
neighborhood, providing him and his friends a wooded sanctuary in which
to lose themselves, while discovering natural Florida.
A
graduate of the University of Florida and American University, Brad has
long aspired to write the kind of fiction that colored his childhood.
His books include The Prisoner and the Sun trilogy and the first in his new young adult series, XGeneration.
Brad lives in Washington, D.C. When he's not writing, he's somewhat hard to find.
His latest book is XGeneration 1: You Don’t Know Me.
