'And just like that, I'm leaving Earth behind . . .'

But now he and nine teenagers like him are travelling to a distant planet aboard the Babel corporation's lightship.
Before they get there, they are told, two of them will be eliminated.
The eight who make it will land on an alien world, where they will hunt for Nyxia, the most extraordinary substance in the universe.
But first Emmett must endure frightening tests, rivalry with his fellow chosen ones and the fear that Babel aren't telling the truth.
Because if Babel aren't, they'll be trapped, light years from home.
And all alone . . .

Notă biografică
Scott
Reintgenhas
spent
his
career
teaching
English
and
Creative
Writing
in
diverse
urban
communities
in
the
United
States.
The
hardest
lesson
he
learned
was
that
inspiration
isn't
equally
accessible
for
everyone.
So
he
set
out
to
write
a
novel
for
the
front-row
sleepers
and
back-row
dreamers
of
his
classrooms.
He
hopes
that
his
former
students
see
themselves,
vibrant
and
on
the
page,
in
characters
like
Emmett.
Nyxia
and
Nyxia
Unleashed
are
the
first
two
novels
in
The
Nyxia
Triad.

I
loved
every
page
In a word: Wow. I could not put it down. If I could give it six stars, I would
An absolute page-turner
My most anticipated YA debut of 2017
Fast-moving and thrilling, andverydifficult to put down
The setup will draw comparisons toThe Hunger Games, but Reintgen's characters stand on their own, and the trials they face are inventive. Emmett's self-deprecation, wit, and ability to see the good in others will keep readers riveted and eager for the next volume in this planned trilogy
A black protagonist in outer space is welcome...copious action and a reality TV atmosphere (the scoreboard shows regularly) make the pace flow. Fast-moving and intriguing
An amazing adventure of intelligence and strength, this sci-fi book presents diverse and complex characters in a tale about greed and internal compromise. The author brings to life more than a dozen characters with depth and individual personalities and agendas. This is a wonderful example of how personal and corporate values are often intertwined despite being at odds with each other. Verdict: Fans ofThe Hunger GamesandThe MazeRunnerseries will enjoy this series opener
File this book under A for Amazing
Brilliant concept meets stellar execution in this fast-paced deep space adventure. I was hooked from page one
Reintgen'sNyxiahas all the qualities that will make this become a blockbuster and one of the most important young-adult science-fiction stories of our time. The plot is gripping. The characters are a spectacularly multi-ethnic blend of misfits and outsiders that are unflinchingly human and flawed. Simply amazing all around, and I desperately need the next story from this new author
Sleek, fast, and action-packed, this is a thrilling new take on space adventure. I got to the end and instantly wanted more
With a vivid cast of characters, relentless pacing, and layers ofmystery, Reintgen hits all the right buttons to craft an addictive pageturner
The futuristic ship is full of impressive gadgets; the competitions are clever and it's fun to guess what skill they might be designed to elicit; the true stars, however, are the teens themselves, wildly diverse and all carrying their own emotional baggage. It is still of note when an African American boy pops up as a sci-fi protagonist, and Emmett is a complex, well-developed, and rich character who speaks, acts, and interacts like a teen who was raised in a rough, urban setting but surrounded by people who love him. Both curious and suspicious atevery turn, he is an ideal narrator, and a sequel can't come soon enough
