DARK STAR By: Bethany Frenette Ages 12-18

DARK STAR  By: Bethany Frenette
Audrey Whitticomb had always thought that he had nothing to fear. And really, when your mother is the superhero Morning star, the most deadly crime-fighter in the Twin Cities, what's there to be afraid of? But the Audrey is lured into the night by something human and not human-something with talons and teeth, and a wide, scarlet smile-and uncovers the truth: her mom doesn't fight crime at night. She fights Harrowers-terrifying, merciless creatures who were trapped Beneath eons ago. Yet some had managed to escaped, and they want Audrey dead, just because of who she is: one the the Kin.
To survive, Audrey will need to sharpen the powers she has always had and join the fight between the Kin and the Harrowers. When an unthinkable betrayal puts Minneapolis in terrible danger, Audrey discovers a wild, untamed power within herself. It may be the key to saving her self, her family, and her city. Or it may be the force that destroys everything she loves. Ages 12-18  Hyperion 17.99 Reviewed by Maggie.
