Travelers Summary

Travelers: A Freaks Novel by Brett Riley

Falling in love. Evading the authorities. Chasing the rabbits.
Now high school sophomores, the self-styled Freaks are back in class in quiet Quapaw City, Arkansas. They grapple with the ordinary challenges of everyday teen life: cliques, cars, and crushes. While everything appears normal on the surface, looks have rarely been more deceiving. A secret government task force-fully aware of the unusual powers the Freaks have acquired-is determined to capture them. Even as the mysterious Baltar Sterne shares ancient wisdom and offers hope, a new menace silently emerges in the woods outside of town. Clever, inexorable, and far more lethal than the Freaks' first superhuman foe, this traveler from another world possesses powers that can only be described as godlike. The Freaks and their town will be tested in horrific ways they are powerless to predict or even imagine.

Travelers Reviews

Riley weaves explorations of anger issues and budding romance as well as forthrightly confronted themes of racial, religious, and class conflict.-Kirkus Book Review

Riley possesses a rare, writerly ability to remain in the moment once the action heats up. In this installment, the Freaks face their most dangerous enemy yet, and the menace fairly leaps off the page.-PaulEberly.com

The book is riveting. Compelling and totally different. I read it one sitting and was seriously bummed it had to end. His writing is remarkable and had me wanting more. I devoured Travelers and his ones before this.-Rubie Clark, @RubieReads

Brett Riley has done it again, as he continues his story of teenage supers battling monsters - fantasy beasts and Government agents alike. An enthralling, fast paced, fantasy horror.-Peter Thorburn, UK educator

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!-Jennifer Brody/Vera Strange, author of The 13th Continuum Trilogy, Spectre Deep 6, and the Disney Chills series.
