(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Chance Fortune 02 Chance Fortune in the Shadow Zone
by
Shane Berryhill

, October 31, 2008
"Shane Berryhill surpasses his power-packed first book, delivering more cool thrills, clever twists and great characters in a world of wildly imaginative dangers. There is plenty here for fans of the caped and cowled, and any who enjoy a smart action-suspense tale brimming with sci-fi/ fantasy elements and a dash of humor." -Michael Reisman THE GRAVITY KEEPER Praise for Chance Fortune and the Outlaws:A New York Public Library Books for the Teen Age selection A Texas Lone Star Reading List selection “Readers weary of Potter-esque fantasy but hungry for another semi-humorous / semi-serious school setting, and lovers of superhero stories in general, will delight in this first volume in the Adventures of Chance Fortune series, ideally structured for many further adventures.”—Publishers Weekly “Berryhill’s debut novel kicks off an engrossing series, The Adventures of Chance Fortune, that takes formulas both old and new and gives them a zippy twist.... A lively and engrossing tale that neither takes itself too seriously nor underestimates its readers….Here’s hoping Berryhill has several series entries ready to go.”—VOYA “This morning one of my students returned the book, Chance Fortune and the Outlaws. This student was raving about the book and wanting to check out the "next" book. It is always rewarding to find a book that excites a student.” -C. Reardon, CA Middle School Librarian / Media Coordinator “I just wanted to write and say that I can't wait for the next Chance Fortune book! It is my favorite book! I really loved how Chance learned that he didn't need superpowers, just his own intelligence and compassion. Thank you for writing a book so special! …All my 5th grade friends loved the book too! My mom said she'd get me the next one for Christmas. I don't know if I can wait that long!” -Seth Thompson, Age 10 “I have just finished reading your Book ‘Chance Fortune’ I couldn't set the book down. It has been one of the best books I have read in a few years. I have been inspired by your writings. I just wanted to tell you that you are a wonderful writer. The book was made very well!” -J. Stephenson, Middle Schooler “I really enjoyed your book and will be recommending it to one and all.” -K. Stewart, Texas “…Absolutely loved your book, when is the second book coming?...I read your book and bought and gave it to my son and his friend for Christmas. They went ape__!” - G. Seminara “My son loved the first chance fortune book!!! when will the next one come out?” -L. Linihan “Thanks so much for being part of our Teen Summer Reading Program.” -A. Banks, Librarian www.shaneberryhill.com
