With her parents’ murderer’s dead, Eren can finally concentrate on fitting in at Spruce Knoll High, not to mention figuring out what it means to be a channeler. If only it were that easy. It turns out she isn’t normal even among channelers – she may be a legendary warrior meant to protect the earth in a last great battle.

But Mayan prophecies are the least of her worries as she involuntarily starts to gather her own Society, another girl moves in on Aiden, her powers rage out of control, and worst of all, someone is stalking her. To top it all off, Eren discovers she doesn’t have to be a channeler after all – she has a choice.

As an old threat closes in and she risks ending up like her parents, she is forced to decide. Be a normal teenager and leave the legendary warrior stuff to someone else, or embrace a dark destiny?

Spark
(Sky Chasers, #2)
Amy Kathleen Ryan
Release date: July 17th, 2012
by St. Martin’s Griffin

Waverly and Kieran are finally reunited on the Empyrean. Kieran has led the boys safely up to this point, and now that the girls are back, their mission seems slightly less impossible: to chase down the New Horizon, and save their parents from the enemy ship. But nothing is truly as it seems…Kieran’s leadership methods have raised Seth’s hackles— and Waverly’s suspicions. Is this really her fiancé? The handsome, loving boy she was torn from just a short time before? More and more, she finds her thoughts aligned with Seth’s. But if Seth is Kieran’s Enemy No. 1, what does that make her?

In one night, a strange explosion rocks the Empyrean—shooting them off course and delaying their pursuit of the New Horizon—and Seth is mysteriously released from the brig. Seth is the most obvious suspect for the explosion, and Waverly the most obvious suspect for releasing him. As the tension reaches a boiling point, will Seth be able to find the true culprit before Kieran locks them both away—or worse? Will Waverly follow her heart, even if it puts lives at risk? With the balance of power precarious and the clock ticking, every decision counts… every step brings them closer to a new beginning, or a sudden end…

The Sky Chasers series:

I’m definitely loving all of these. I especially like the new look of the Sky Chasers series since I wasn’t a huge fan of the original design. What are your thoughts on these covers?

    I cannot WAIT for the next Sky Chaser’s novel! I have to agree with you, the original design was not my fav, and these new ones are bold and bright and actually kind of make you feel the science fiction vibe!

    Those are some gorgeous covers! I just started listening to Glow on audiobook, and am going to have to switch to the book. The narrators are kind of awful and I really want to like the book. I’m also kind of surprised Glow got the new cover treatment already! Oh well, it’s stunning.

  5. Giselle

    @Heather: Yes Heather your cover more than belongs with all this prettiness! <3

    @Bibliosaurus Text: I haven’t read Glow yet but the reviews are really mixed I’m curious to see what you think!
