Fallout (Lois Lane) – Gwenda Bond
I was many things, but I wasn’t a quitter. I didn’t give up, and I wasn’t going to start.
Featuring another recognisable fan favourite, this time Lois Lane from DC’s Superman universe, Fallout is a fun read where our 17-year-old heroine ends up in the thick of things on her first day of school, despite her best intentions to keep a low profile. Never one to allow injustice to stand, she embarks a mission to solve the mystery of a bizarre yet terrifying school bullying of a fellow student. Lois makes use of her smarts as a school newspaper reporter, and of course, has a little help from her virtual friend, SmallvilleGuy… (HINT HINT)
Official blurb:
Lois Lane is starting a new life in Metropolis. An Army brat, Lois has lived all over—and seen all kinds of things. (Some of them defy explanation, like the near-disaster she witnessed in Kansas in the middle of one night.) But now her family is putting down roots in the big city, and Lois is determined to fit in. Stay quiet. Fly straight. As soon as she steps into her new high school, though, she can see it won’t be that easy. A group known as the Warheads is making life miserable for another girl at school. They’re messing with her mind, somehow, via the high-tech immersive videogame they all play. Not cool. Armed with her wit and her new snazzy job as a reporter, Lois has her sights set on solving this mystery. But sometimes it’s all a bit much. Thank goodness for her maybe-more-than-a friend, a guy she knows only by his screenname, SmallvilleGuy.
