The kingdom of Nebula lies deep in the underworld, where it is always night but never dark. True darkness --- the evil kind --- is lurking, and only a Chosen One, someone with the mark of the Nebulite king, can help save the kingdom from destruction by the Warriors of the Black Shroud. Astonishingly, the Chosen One is a child named Walker, who must first find the light within himself before he can lead Nebula to safety. Can he do it before it’s too late?

When we left off last week, I was in New Orleans. Thanks to all of you who wrote to tell me how you enjoyed last week’s newsletter about my author and book adventures there. I really appreciated your notes, and I THINK I responded to everyone.

Last weekend, I was in Dallas at a convention where there was a more than two-hour panel in which teens talked about 120 books that were being considered for a list of the 2012 Best Fiction for Young Adults.

I found myself thinking of all of you as I listened to them. Such a great afternoon of book conversation and lively commentary!
