Freaks Summary

Freaks: A Novel by Brett Riley

Hunted by monsters. Wanted for questioning. Late for class. Four high-school friends suffer daily humiliation at the hands of three bullies. When the friends accidentally open a portal to another dimension, they unintentionally allow terrifying, other-worldly creatures to invade their small Arkansas town. Discovering that they are now endowed with strange superpowers, the four teens dub themselves Freaks, the very name their tormentors used to ridicule them. The Freaks must fight to save the lives of family and friends now in mortal peril and thwart a secret government task force that appears to be hunting them.

Freaks Reviews

A great spin on the superhero story, told with genuine depth.-Mark Waid, best-selling author of History of the Marvel Universe, Doctor Strange, and Superman Birthright.
A fun and fresh twist on the superhero story! Fast-paced, strong characters, and twists and turns make this a must read!-Jennifer Brody/Vera Strange, author of The 13th Continuum Trilogy, Spectre Deep 6, and the Disney Chills series
With Freaks, Brett Riley has accomplished something very few YA authors have: freakishly good writing, freakishly relatable characters, freakishly awesome premise - all making for a freakishly great read.-M. P. Kozlowsky, author of Frost, and Rose Coffin
Freaks is propulsive and brilliantly written, with compelling characters and plenty of action.-Scott Bergstrom, author of The Cruelty and The Greed.
Freaks begins at top speed and never lets up until the final page. Like some fascinating blend of Stranger Things and X-Men, Brett Riley's novel explores what power means and how it is best wielded, making the book both timely and timeless. A fantastic read!-Kevin Waltman, author of Nowhere Fast, Learning the Game and Next.
