Sci-Fi is great!

I just finished The Supernaturalist by Eoin Colfer.  Thanks to Erin, Emily, Luke, Savana, Siera, and Trent for reading it with me!
Science-fiction is a reading genre that takes place in the future where there are technological advances.  The author is predicting what life will be like in the future.
This author wrote about a time in the future where many people live in this one giant city.  Humans have not been kind to the planet so the air is polluted with smoke-fog, or smog.  The main character is an orphan who lives in this terrible place.  When he gets out, he realizes that he has special abilities.  This is how he becomes part of this group that is trying to protect the people of the city.  They call themselves the "supernaturalists" because they have powers that are more than what most people naturally have.
They begin a mission that had me changing my predictions time after time.  Every time I thought I knew how it would end, the author would throw in a twist.  It's the kind of book that you could imagine them turning into a movie because it keeps the reader constantly on the edge of the seat.
The characters are all very different and interesting.  My favorite character happened to be the girl (not only because her name is Mona like my daughter!).  She has a big heart, but she's never afraid to tell it like it is.
I would really recommend this book to both boys and girls who like adventure stories.  Does anyone know if he wrote a sequel?  Enjoy your summer reading!
