Product Information

With a"headstrong heroine on par with Katniss Everdeen and Tris Prior" ("Kirkus") this debut thriller combines a pulse-pounding scifi thriller with a new adult coming-of-age story set at Texas A&M University. When Ren Sharpe was fourteen, she was kidnapped by a shadowy organization called FATE and trained to be a human weapon. Now, four years later, she receives her assignment: protect Gareth Young at all costs. Currently a student at Texas A&M, Gareth will someday change the world. FATE calls people like Gareth FIPs future important people and they re everywhere, each with a FATE-trained shadow. But when disaster strikes, Ren will have to turn on her maker. Together with Junie, a fellow abductee and the one person she trusts, Ren takes Gareth on the run. Because whatever else happens, failure is not an option."

ReviewsPraise for I Become Shadow "The greatest strength is Ren's jokey, snark-a-minute narration; that alone puts it in the same ballpark as Michelle Gagnon's Persefone trilogy or Anthony Horowitz's Alex Rider thrillers." --VOYA "A fast, funny, sharp debut." -- Kiersten White , New York Times best selling author of Paranormalcy "With a love triangle, vivid training sessions, and ample action, Shine's debut introduces a new kick-butt, funny heroine who could hold her own in a ring full of tough, independent girls like Katniss Everdeen, Tris Prior, and Lela Santos." --Booklist "In his debut, Shine delivers a thrilling plot and a headstrong heroine on par with Katniss Everdeen and Tris Prior." --Kirkus Reviews "Brimming with wisecracks and jokes, which turn an interesting concept into a very light read... plenty of excitement and humor." --School Library Journal, Praise for I Become Shadow "A fast, funny, sharp debut." -- Kiersten White , New York Times best selling author of Paranormalcy "In his debut, Shine delivers a thrilling plot and a headstrong heroine on par with Katniss Everdeen and Tris Prior." --Kirkus Reviews "Brimming with wisecracks and jokes, which turn an interesting concept into a very light read... plenty of excitement and humor." --School Library Journal
