X in Flight - E-book - ePub

X - short for Xenos - is 17, tough but shy. He's a decent golfer, but his mother thinks he's the next Tiger Woods. One night, X is shocked to discover that he can fly. Is he a superhero? An angel? Or just really screwed up? X's girlfriend, Cat, is pierced, mean, angry - and afraid. Ruby watches them both in silence. X admires her, but Ruby thinks she's going crazy. Their lives intersect one terrifying night at a school dance, when X's powers are the only way to save Ruby's life.
Does he believe in himself enough to do it?Dark, deep, and dramatic, X in Flight is a bold departure from the humorous Haley Andromeda series, but it shows Karen Rivers at the height of her powers. Here, she proves her matchless ability to create and understand today's teens and their complicated lives, and to tell intense stories with honesty, humor, and intelligence.
