Enter a mess of trouble from the Changers Council, the closed-minded Abiders, the Radical Changers (RaChas), <i>and</i> his best friend Audrey--at least she was his best friend when Oryon was Drew--and now, it's complicated. <p/>But that's life (and life, and life, and life) for Changers, an ancient race of humans who must live out each year of high school as a completely different person. Before next summer, Oryon will learn what it means to be truly loved, scared spitless, and at the center of a burgeoning national culture war. Most of all, he will learn again how much the eyes of the world try to shape you into what they see--and how only when you resist do you clearly begin to see yourself.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>T Cooper</b> is the author of four novels, including the best-selling <i>Lipshitz Six, or Two Angry Blondes</i>, <i>Some of the Parts</i>, and <i>The Beaufort Diaries</i>.
