Zeroes is a glorious mix between a comic-book adventure and a heist film. Like Ocean’s Eleven meets The Avengers … except all the characters are teenagers with the kind of superpowers that are often more of a hindrance than a help.

Created by the genius trio of Scott Westerfeld, Margo Lanagan and Deborah Biancotti – Zeroes is a wildly dynamic and addictive read packed full of thrills and spills.

A girl with psychic mob control powers, a boy with a smooth-talking-all-knowing split personality, a blind girl with the ability to see through the eyes of other people, a boy with unnaturally strong charisma, a girl who can hack computer systems with her mind, and a boy so unnoticeable that nobody remembers he exists – these are the Zeroes! Six kids with unusual superpowers, a bag of stolen cash and a whole world of trouble to deal with …

The first book of what looks set to be a sensational series (I’m already anxiously awaiting the release of the second book) Zeroes is a super fun read and a guaranteed crowd-pleaser!

Zeroes

by Scott Westerfeld, Margo Lanagan and Deborah Biancotti

Introducing ZEROES – featuring six unique superheroes, one bag of stolen drug money, one bungled bank robbery and a whole heap of trouble. All adding up to one outstanding YA series by three extraordinary writers.

Don’t call them heroes. But these six Californian teens have powers that set them apart.

Ethan aka Scam has a voice inside him that’ll say whatever people want to hear, whether it’s true or not. Which is handy, except when it isn’t – like when the voice starts gabbing in the middle of a bank robbery. The only people who can help are the other Zeroes, who aren’t exactly best friends these days.

Enter Nate, aka Bellwether, the group’s ‘glorious leader.’ After Scam’s SOS, he pulls the scattered Zeroes back together. But when the rescue blows up in their faces, the Zeroes find themselves propelled into whirlwind encounters with ever more dangerous criminals. At the heart of the chaos they find Kelsie, who can take a crowd in the palm of her hand and tame it or let it loose as she pleases.

Filled with high-stakes action and drama, Zeroes unites three powerhouse authors for the opening instalment of a thrilling new series.
