PROXY, by Alex London
The story: Sid is a Proxy. Knoxx is his Patron--but this doesn't make them friends. In fact, since Sid has to take the punishment for every stupid (or criminal) thing rich-boy Knoxx does, they're more like enemies. But when fate brings them crashing into each other in a way neither could ever have imagined, they'll either have to work together--or they'll die together. Either way, what happens next will change their entire world.
June Cleaver's ratings: Language R; Violence R; Sexual content PG; nudity PG; substance abuse PG-13; magic & the occult G; GLBT content PG-13; adult themes (general brutality) PG-13; overall rating R.
Liz's comments: An interesting story indeed, but one that I would have placed squarely in the 9th-grade and up category. A gritty choice for this year's LoneStar list that rather pushes the envelope. Consider the individual ratings carefully.
