Brief Author Bio: Danielle Myers is sixteen years old and attends a very tiny private school where everybody knows everybody else. This makes it very difficult to hide the fact that she is a book nerd and a walking dictionary. She lives in Portland but vacations in Neverland and Middle-Earth, and occasionally London, where she frequents the theatre district and attempts to pick up British slang. She generally writes novels full of extremely tough characters to balance out the fact that she herself is mostly a wimp, except when it comes to swords, small children, and tree-climbing. Jesus Christ, Peter Pan and Samwise Gamgee are her greatest inspirations in life. |

Synopsis: The Flames
There was Nero, then Hitler, then Stalin....then Donovan.
In a faded future world ruled brutally by the 23rd-century version of a tyrant, very few rebel groups last for long. The one group that is legendary among the oppressed masses is The Flames--a group whose members are never seen, never heard, their actions only known after they have vanished. After six years struggling for life on the streets, Lauren, a streetwise teenage thief, accidentally witnesses the group in action, and is suddenly swept into their underground society. The group is young, and small, but amazingly powerful under the leadership of Tanzira, a strong and secretive girl only a few years older than Lauren. As Lauren becomes a part of The Flames and begins to form a shaky friendship with Tanzira, she determines to find out the secret behind the older girl's mysterious knowledge of the way Donovan moves. But the truth isn't at all what Lauren expects to find, and uncovering a secret this dangerous is going to cost her.
