The Rainloft Academy - Paperback

by Maci Smithers (Author)

Born in a crumbling world ridden with chaos and lawlessness, The Rainloft Academy exists to transform ordinary kids into crime-fighting superheroes-or so they are told. With her revolutionary serum, founder and headmistress Avalon Lockhart puts hundreds of kids through a grueling, eight-year-long training course that prepares them to bear the weight of the world on their shoulders.

When June Winters is taken from her family she regards it not as an honor but as a lifelong prison sentence. Once she finally manages to escape, she and her band of fugitives form a plan to take down the Rainloft and end Avalon's reign of terror once and for all. But as they get closer to reaching their goal, June starts to make discoveries that shift her views of not only the Academy but of society as a whole. Before long she finds the fate of the world in her hands, and in order to avoid dooming the people of Lavon, she'll have to make choices that weigh humanity against happiness and family against the greater good.
