Michael Vey is missing and it’s up to the Electroclan to find him in this electrifying seventh installment of the New York Times bestselling series! However, Hatch survived and while his plans have certainly suffered a setback, he’s more determined than ever to bring the world’s governments under his control. Former EGG David Welch stood alone on the Joule’s deck as he panned his binoculars over the smoldering prison island of Hades. What few trees and foliage the Elgen had left on the island were still burning or glowing in heaps of red and orange embers. Around them scorched human skeletons and bones lay strewn across the landscape like straw after a windstorm. The island’s sand, now mostly melted to glass, glistened where streams of morning sunlight broke through the retreating storm clouds, reflecting the vibrant prisms of the color spectrum. On one side of the crystalline beach were the only signs of life—the scurrying Tuvaluan natives who, along with the Electroclan, had survived the Elgen attack and taken shelter in the underground bunker before the explosion. Welch had left the natives water, food, and the Joule’s remaining life rafts to make their journey back to their home islands. Their leader, Enele Saluni, grandson of the former Tuvaluan prime minister (who, at Hatch’s orders, had been sentenced to life on display, naked in a monkey cage in the Tuvaluan capital), saluted Welch from the distance. Welch raised his binoculars one more time and scanned the horizon along the northern end of the island, looking for signs of Elgen. Welch followed Jack down the inside of the Joule’s conning tower, pausing on the ladder near the top as hydraulic pistons pulled the hatch closed. Pneumatic clamps hissed and clicked around him as the steel hatch was locked airtight. Then Welch climbed down to join the others in the Conn, the Joule’s control center. “Take us down,” Welch said to the boat’s COB—the chief of the boat—as he stepped from the ladder onto the metal floor. Even though the Joule could travel as much as fifteen knots faster above surface, Welch didn’t want to take the chance of being seen. Outside of the Joule’s crew members who Welch had set adrift, he didn’t know who had survived. Twelve hours earlier, when Welch and his Glows—Quentin, Tara, Torstyn, and Cassy—had hijacked the Joule, they’d disarmed the seventeen-man crew and then sent everyone off the boat, except for the Joule’s COB and the four crew members needed to operate the ship. Welch had also sent J.D., the boat captain who had betrayed the Electroclan by sailing them into a trap, and his crew with the Elgen. When Hatch finds out that you helped us hijack the Joule, he’ll feed you to his rats.”. No one takes my life but me.” Then, letting go of the raft, he sunk down in the black water beneath the heaving waves. Quentin had disabled the raft’s outboard motor and radio with an EMP so the Elgen would not be able to alert anyone for hours, giving Welch and the Glows the time they needed to get back to Hades to rescue their friends. Welch’s first thought was that Hatch had detonated some kind of nuclear device to destroy the island. They weren’t going to leave the islands until they knew for certain if any of their friends had survived. Hours later, when Welch and company surfaced the Joule off the coast of Hades, they couldn’t believe what they saw. Welch and Quentin sailed to shore to pick up their friends, leaving Cassy, Torstyn, and Tara on board to secure the ship. Ten minutes after Welch and Quentin left, one of the Elgen crewmen approached Cassy. “I knew it the moment he came to my door to ask me to take him to California.”. Just then Cassy walked into the Conn. She glanced around the room, then asked, “Where’s Michael?”. Jack swallowed in pain, fighting back tears. The rest of the teens followed Tara, single file, out of the Conn. None of them had ever seen anything like the Joule before, which wasn’t surprising, since the Joule was the only ship of its kind ever built—a hybrid vault, ship, and submarine. Tara led them down a narrow corridor past the commander’s quarters to the first of two bunk rooms. It was only twelve feet wide, with pipe-framed cots on both sides of the room with trampoline-like mattresses. The beds were stacked four high, with only a few feet of headroom; the bottom bunks were suspended only three inches above the floor. Welch wants us all to stay in the same room so we can lock the Elgen crew members in the other.”. Everyone else claimed bunks, except Taylor, who just stood in the middle of the room looking lost. Just lie down right here, sweetie,” Abigail said, pulling down the covers on a bottom bunk. Taylor took off her shoes and crawled out across the cot, lying on her back. For a moment everyone was quiet and the only sounds were the constant hissing of the Joule’s air system, Jack’s snoring, and the strained, eerie groaning of the vessel. Ostin sniffed, then said softly, “At six hundred feet the water pressure is 282.6 pounds per square inch. “There are stacks of gold bullion running two feet high across the length of the boat.”. Abigail glanced back at McKenna with a sad smile, then climbed onto the bunk above Taylor.

Collecting Incredible Hulk Vol. Monsters and heroes... and the Incredible Hulk!

Red Queen , by #1 New York Times bestselling author Victoria Aveyard, is a sweeping tale of power, intrigue, and betrayal, perfect for fans of George R.R. As Mare is drawn further into the Silver world, she risks everything and uses her new position to help the Scarlet Guard—a growing Red rebellion—even as her heart tugs her in an impossible direction. Mare's resigned herself to the fact that she'll always serve the Silver, a genetically gifted group of people with supernatural abilities. A chance encounter with the prince causes Mare to suddenly find herself at the royal palace as a servant, where she discovers in front of everyone that she also has a unique gift. The king and queen quickly cover up Mare's anomaly by presenting her to the rest of the Silvers as a long-lost princess and betroth her to their second-born son. There's a bit of teen romance, but luckily the characters are self-aware enough to realize its frivolity among the story's more important plot points. A solid debut from Aveyard and a welcome addition to the plethora of speculative teen lit.—Kimberly Castle-Alberts, Hudson Library & Historical Society, OH "A sizzling, imaginative thriller, where romance and revolution collide, where power and justice duel. " [Aveyard] sets her audience up for a gaspworthy twist that reconfigures nearly every character's role and leaves Mare with no one to trust but herself... Readers will be intrigued by a world that reflects today's troubling issues concerning ethnic inequality, unfair distribution of wealth, pollution, warfare, political corruption, and the frightening power of the media."
