Nine

Beschreibung

16 year-old Faith Monroe needs to know if there's an assigned seat for her in the universe before she loses her life. It's the year 2025, and she's one of several teens slated to discover her expiration date, but there's only one complication: The transport she's riding in has a number of teens, including herself, who never received the extraterrestrial death chip. A device implanted at birth set to kill you at your appointed time. As perfect genetic matches for the leaders of the planet NINE, Faith and her friends must prevent an assimilation of their souls. Training her soul to resist won't be easy. In fact, she'll have to die first. A soul can't fight back while it's still attached to a living being. Faced with a nearly impossible choice, run away or stay and be trained, she summons the fearlessness to fight. Maybe she's finally found the real reason she's survived her illness, to restore the concept of dying by grand design rather than government mandate.

D.M. King spends countless hours trying to figure out a more creative way to teach 8th graders that writing really is important in the grand scheme of things. Mixed in with all that concentrated energy, he casts immeasurable numbers of what if's into the river just to see what he might catch. Occasionally-a fun concept like his latest YA/Novel NINE swims by, he reels it in, and calls it a book. It's kind of Unwind meetsThe 5th Wave, in case you were wondering. He likes to take in movies with his wife, pretend he's a child again with his grandsons, and play golf. Although-most of the time he'll admit that golf-more often than not-plays him. Just ask the country club cart keeper who found a gaping hole in the windshield. He thinks his 150 dollar green fee should more than take care of it. Or at the least, buy some clear duct tape. He's a Kent State University graduate with a minor in psychology and concentration in creative writing, a published playwright with Brooklyn Publishing, and most importantly a Child of God. With Him, none of this publishing stuff would ever be possible. Kudos to His faithfulness. Most of all he looks forward to taking his readers by the hand and leading them to places they want and don't want to go sometimes and to learn a few life lessons along the way. He looks forward to sharing book two and three in the series with you. Enjoy the journey. Have Faith.
