"Six journeys beyond the borders of the real"--Cover.

Don''t call them heroes. But these six Californian teens have powers that set them apart. Ethan aka Scam has a voice inside him that''ll say whatever people want to hear, whether it''s true or not. Which is handy, except when it isn''t - like when the voice starts gabbing in the middle of a bank robbery. The only people who can help are the other Zeroes, who aren''t exactly best friends these days. Enter Nate, aka Bellwether, the group''s ''glorious leader.'' After Scam''s SOS, he pulls the scattered Zeroes back together. But when the rescue blows up in their faces, the Zeroes find themselves propelled into whirlwind encounters with ever more dangerous criminals. At the heart of the chaos they find Kelsie, who can take a crowd in the palm of her hand and tame it or let it loose as she pleases. Filled with high - stakes action and drama, Zeroes unites three powerhouse authors for the opening instalment of a thrilling new series.

Das Leben von Mel (16) wird auf einen Schlag unerträglich, als sie wegen einer Abtreibung von ihren Mitschülern geschnitten wird und zudem ihr Vater wegen einer anderen Frau die Familie verlässt.

Ranging from the trench cities of the northern battlefields to the bucking volcanic landscapes of the southern mountains, from the intricate arts of mannikin-making to the rebirth of the legendary Anwi, this is a saga of war and romance and the power of the past over present, and life over death.

Finn, a runaway, is sleeping in a dumpster when he first spots the space-suited tankermen dumping sludge in the drains, and the more he finds out about them, the less likely it seems that they are human at all.

The Zeroes are in disarray. One of them has vanished into thin air. One of them is in prison. The rest of them are on the most-wanted list. And something big is brewing. After defeating Swarm in a breath-taking stand-off, Nate has been arrested for his murder. In prison and isolated, he can''t use his powers of influence at all. Flicker, Chizara, Kelsie and Ethan are on the run and in hiding from the FBI who believe the Cambria Five are domestic terrorists. And Agent Phan and the FBI have a secret weapon up their sleeve - a teenager with a superpower that the Zeroes haven''t encountered yet. Meanwhile, Sonia Sonic and her growing band of weird-hunters are tracking inexplicable events across the country - and their investigations lead them to New Orleans during Mardi Gras, where the celebrating crowds promise enormous power to anyone who can channel it. Time is running out for the Zeroes, but they must learn to trust each other again and combine their powers for good - to avert the looming disaster. A brilliant, action-packed conclusion to the superb Zeroes series.

After the shocking conclusion to Swarm, the Zeroes are scattered, on the run, and desperate. They''re up against challenges from within and from the world around them, and one thing is certain--an epic showdown is guaranteed.
