I BECOME SHADOW, by Joe Shine


The story: Ren Sharpe disappears at the age of 14 a normal girl--and returns to the world at 18, a trained killer. A Shadow. Not that she's going to kill just anyone--only any bad guy who wants to get hold of Gareth Young, a Future Important Person bound to change the world in some profound way. Some day. But for now, Ren just has to keep him safe...which will almost certainly be harder than it sounds!

June Cleaver's ratings: Language PG-13; Violence R; Sexual content PG; Nudity PG; Substance Abuse PG; magic & the occult G; GLBT content G; adult themes (kidnapping, children raised with violence) PG-13; overall rating PG-13.

Liz's comments: An interesting, kick-butt story from concept to execution. Ren is a smart, brassy, brave heroine who is also missing her family and looking for love. Expect to see more of her from Texas author Shine.
