Specials
by Scott Westerfeld
No longer a bubble-head, but not free either, Tally struggles to fit into her new role as a Special. Amazingly strong and full of new powers, she still wants nothing more than to be happy. Her first love from the Smoke, David, seems to be nothing but an ugly troublemaker to her now. And her new love, Zane, has not recovered from his brain trauma, leaving him shaky and weak. Both are very un-Special. Will the old Tally, the one that remembers how to love even those who aren’t perfect, be able to overcome her new Specialness? Will even that be enough to save the world from destruction?
