Chasers
The
small town of Winston, Colorado, has a secret-one that hides in its children.
Long ago, there were many children who suffered from the local
"condition." There are fewer of them now, but Shelby is one of them.
She was born with a ruby embedded in her skin. In the same year, two other kids
in town, Gary and May, were born with emeralds. Now a teenager, Shelby nurses a
crush on Gary, while he sticks close to the fragile May and tries to protect
her from, among other things, Shelby's bullying. Despite their differences,
however, their births connect them; when May goes missing, Gary needs Shelby's
help. Together, Shelby and Gary learn the unspeakable truth about each
other-and about the chasers. Death lurks around every turn; in order to
survive, Shelby, Gary, and May must work together. It is now their
responsibility to save an entire generation of people also born with their
"condition" before a century-old grudge destroys them all
War of Rain
Fifteen
year-old Miri lives in a desert village called Boreala, which competes with the
city of Stratos for Rain – the equivalent of Holy Water. During a confrontation
while gathering Rain, Miri accidentally kills a citizen of Stratos, and
unintentionally starts a heinous war. Now it is up to her to find the God of
Rain, Kalono, and ask Him for an invention that can bring both peace and war
before Boreala is destroyed.
