Synopsis

Twelve-year-old Frankie Lenten never asked to be swept up into a rebellion against the secret superpowered society known as Artemin, but she has no choice after being hit by a rebel fireball that gives her superspeed. And even though she agrees with the rebellion that Artemin's rulers are overbearing and they should let everyone use their powers, a terrifying encounter with one of their psychotic leaders convinces her that there is true evil on the rebel's side. Now, caught between the rulers and the rebels, Frankie must find her own way to fight back. Luckily, she has the help of two true friends--the wickedly funny Eliza, who can move things with her mind, and the philosophical Shaun, who is not supposed to know about their secret lives. But as the trio races to stop an all out war, one question remains. Between her friends and her family, her principles and her power, her life and the lives of thousands around the world just like her, what will Frankie have to sacrifice to become a real hero? The Fireball Rebellion--a fantasy adventure novel for ages 11 and up--is the first book of the Fireball Rebellion series. Look for the second book, Hurricane Frankie, to blow into your town soon.
