A meteor is hurling toward the Black Hills of South Dakota, getting ever closer. Brady Steele watches in awe as the fireball crashes into his bedroom. Excited Brady immediately phones his cousin, Quinn. They both love all things extreme, and this is the most extreme thing ever! During a wild week of mountain biking, fishing, and caving with Quinn, Brady discovers he's got awesome powers--and some frightening symptoms.

Will Hobbs is the award-winning author of nineteen novels, including Far North, Crossing the Wire, and Take Me to the River. Never Say Die began with the author's eleven-day raft trip in 2003 down the Firth River on the north slope of Canada's Yukon Territory. Ever since, Will has been closely following what scientists and Native hunters are reporting about climate change in the Arctic. When the first grolar bear turned up in the Canadian Arctic, he began to imagine one in a story set on the Firth River. A graduate of Stanford University, Will lives with his wife, Jean, in Durango, Colorado.
