SIMON BLOOM, THE GRAVITY KEEPER(now available in paperback!) (Note: Gravity Not Included!) This is the story of Simon Bloom, an imaginative 11-year old boy who finds the wondrous Teacher's Edition of Physics (or does it find him?), a Book that lets him control the laws of Physics. Simon and his friends, Owen and Alysha, have a great time with these powers, but unfortunately, they're not the only ones who know about it. The Book belongs to a group, called the Order of Physics, who wants it back. Plus, there are two villains who will stop at nothing to get the Book for their own nasty plans. Of course, all of these people have their own science powers...and it's only a matter of time before they find Simon and his friends. Now you, yes you, can control the universe! This book has action, adventure and humor, all set in a modern-day New Jersey town. With science as magic, almost anything is possible...but first you have to understand the rules to make it work! David Lubar, author of HIDDEN TALENTS, TRUE TALENTS and many other great books, says, "Amazing, amusing, and highly inventive, this book is a keeper."
No, no, you're not insane (at least not about this) - the cover of Simon Bloom, the Gravity Keeper has changed. This is what the hardcover version looked like.
SIMON BLOOM: THE OCTOPUS EFFECT(available in stores/online June 2009) (Note: Get ready for the Effect!) Book 2 of the Simon Bloom series takes place 5 months after The Gravity Keeper ended. Simon Bloom, Owen and Alysha are enjoying their lives as members of the Order of Physics, but everything is about to change. An old enemy is on the loose, and Simon must lead his friends in pursuit, taking them to the undersea dome that houses the Order of Biology. What will they find there? Will they gain new powers? And just what is the Octopus Effect? You'll find out the answers to these, and at least two other questions (of my choice), in the sequel to Simon Bloom, the Gravity Keeper! And yes, Simon has gotten new sneakers since the first cover...
Some of you may have seen the earlier cover for The Octopus Effect, but don't be fooled - you want the one with Simon's legs kicking deep, deep underwater. (Um, please don't try that at home...)
Coming soon: SIMON BLOOM: THE OCTOPUS EFFECT in Audiobook! And coming in 2010: What's it about? What does that title mean? What will the cover look like? Will Simon have new sneakers in this picture, too? All I'll tell you is that the story continues what's been happening in books 1 & 2, involves a visit to the Order of Chemistry, and has a guy named Simon Bloom in it. Oh, and Of Course, The Narrator is back. Duh. (I mean, seriously...who else is going to tell the story? Michael Reisman?) |
