Delaney Escott lives in a world where popularity reigns supreme. If you want to be noticed, social status is everything. The government is run by the Superiors: a very exclusive group of individuals who are virtually flawless. They are smarter than us and stronger than us, and to join their ranks is the highest honor. The Superiors pay an annual visit to the top schools in the nation and evaluate the students, choosing one boy and one girl - the most Popular in the school - to go the Capitol and train for Superiority. Delaney thinks that she's the only one indifferent to (and perhaps even suspicious of) the Superiors, until Caleb Payne, the most popular boy in school, approaches her with a request. He has a task for her, one that he believes she is uniquely capable of completing. And as she helps him, Delaney discovers that the government is hiding many secrets - and that the truth of the Superiors is far from what people believe it to be.

All she saw was blue... Ruth, Megan and Nikita had been friends for years. They did almost everything together. Went to school, ate together and walked home afterwards. One unfortunate evening, however, things didn't turn out like they normally did. The talk of the town was the possible sighting of a meteor flying over head, but no one had expected it to crash in a park where these three girls were left quite alone to - die? No. They survived but not unscathed. They were scarred and burned, some deeper than the eye could see. Things started to change, the girls changed and someone was watching. After each receiving a mysterious invitation to party for charitable benefits, the girls attended a fateful night that they'd never soon forget. After almost a year of seperation would the bonds of friendship still be as strong as it once was? Could they put their hopes and dreams aside long enough to try and survive the oncoming mass of catastrophe and death? Or would it end, as they suspect, in tears? cover by @Aphrodite270

Able to recite the Book of Truth and apply it to any situation Xeraelyn is fully aware of what is expected of her. She steps into her role as Priestess gracefully and is the embodiment of what her people strive to be – until rogue forces from Beyond kidnap her and she is forced to realise that the one thing she believed was a part of her is a lie.
