Editors Choice in Young Adult Fantasy Books

Our editors choice in new young adult fantasy books is the amazing Whatever Became of the Squishies by Claire Chilton.

Carla Mainston is a purple-skinned outcast in her home colony of Derobmi. At fifteen she is tired of trying to fit into the perfect, green and clean world that she was born into. Trouble seems to find her and lure her away from the life she's supposed to lead, into a darker criminal place. But Carla doesn't really belong in either world.

When a mysterious disease infects all the teenagers in her colony, Carla gets caught up in the middle of a murderous plot as she is the only one not infected. On a dangerous journey through the murky underworld of Derobmi, Carla must find a cure for her brother and discover what makes her so different from everyone else.

Through the ancient archives at the heart of the planet's core, to the mystical caves beneath Foamy Mansion, Carla is drawn into a mystery that spans generations and holds the secrets to her existence.
    
Whatever Became of the Squishies is the first novel in a unique new fantasy series that is brimming with magic and mystery in a futuristic fantasy adventure.

Try out this great read in either eBook or paperback at Amazon's YA fantasy books or the official website for half priced books.
