A part graphic novel, part book, about the incredible rush of "skimming"—and the terrifying consequences of disobedience

Ever had the shivery feeling that someone is "walking over your grave?" It's someone skimming your soul. Adam discovers the hard way that skimming is an amazing rush, until he is hunted down by the shadowy figures of The Board. Its rules must be followed, but Adam has to break them in a battle of wits as he struggles to find out who has taken his missing sister. Half graphic novel, half book, the story is told with words and stunning sequential artwork by Jess Swainson.

Industry Reviews

'The Ten Rules of Skimming is a unique adventure which will grab even the most reluctant young reader. Zella Compton's debut novel is an animating adventure told through words and a set of impressive illustrations which make the story an irresistible read. Adam Barnes could be any bored teenager until his life takes an exciting twist which takes him places most people can only dream of. Living any schoolboy's fantasy, he skips through people's minds from one cliff-hanging chapter to the next, bringing drama, suspense and defiance along the way.' Sam Bannister, The News, Portsmouth. 'Zella captures the reader's emotions and even when the book ends doesn't let them go. This 9/10 read will make you think hard about the minds of psychos, as well as what makes us us.' Rating: 9/10.' Nayu's Reading Corner.
