The Reckoning-Michael Carroll


The is the 3rd Quantum Prophecy book. Danny and Colin are super humans and sons of legendary superheroes. Quantum was Danny's father, and Energy and Titan were Colin's mother and father. Now Colin ran away from Sakkara, a special government agency. The Trutopians (now secretly ran by Victor Cross) try to get Colin on their side with some bribes. It's really hard to remember every detail:
-Stephenie, one of Paragon's (the non-superhuman superhero) twin daughters, is now renamed Erica in the witness protection program. She's ends up having to train some kid in Indiana that wants to help and be a superhero. She's gonna take-over her dead father's role.
-Colin is being controlled by Yvonne, a super smart and strong mind-controlling girl.
-Danny is still dealing with having only a left arm.
-Mina, Yvonne's sis, wakes up and Yvonne is controlling her.
-Colin rescues some slaves in a platinum mine.
-I forgot to mention Diamond aka Renata Soliz. She can turn into a solid crystal form, and she's strong. Danny likes her.
-Butler is a guy who can make forcefields.
That's all I remember. I recommend this to those who like superhero stuff.

This World We Live In-Susan Beth Pfeffer


This is the third book of The Last Survivors series, and the last. In Life As We Knew It, Miranda Even from Howell, PN wrote about her family's survival after an asteroid knocked the moon closer to the Earth in her diary. In The Dead and the Gone, we saw how Alex Morales and his sisters survived after it in New York. Now we're back to Miranda's diary and the weather changing. It's raining once again, finally. It's been about a year since it happened, and they're getting food once a week, rationing it. Matt and Jon travel to the river to catch some shad fish. Matt marries some girl her just met, Syl. Dad and Lisa come back with their baby, Gabriel as well as three other people: Alex, Julie and Charlie. Miranda starts to fall for Alex, but Alex has to leave soon for Julie's safety.
I love this series. It's so amazing. Survival stories with a sci-fi edge are just......amazing.
