ZEROBOXER was named a 2015 selection by the Junior Library Guild. This is awesome because the JLG picks only a few titles each season to recommend and promote to libraries around the country. Needless to say, I’m very happy and honored.
I’m particularly stoked by the way the JLG describes the book. Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Genetically modified superhumans. High-stakes zero-gravity fighting championships. Earth/Mars political strife. Carr Luka, seventeen, trapped in the middle.

ZEROBOXER has a cover! YA Books Central is hosting the cover reveal and giveaway, which runs until the end of April. Check it out.
Back when it was being sold, ZEROBOXER was pitched as Rocky meets Gattaca, so one lucky winner will receive the ZEROBOXER PRIZE PACK, which includes: a signed copy of ZEROBOXER upon its release, the DVD of Rocky, the DVD of Gattaca (both must-have movies in my opinion), and some more cool mystery swag thrown in for good measure.
