Insignia by S J Kincaid
"Insignia expertly combines humor with a disarming and highly realistic view of the future. The characters are real, funny, and memorable. You won't be able to put this book down."--Veronica Roth, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divergent and Insurgent
The earth is in the middle of WWIII in Insignia, the first entry in S. J. Kincaid's fast-paced sci-fi adventure trilogy perfect for fans of Ender's Game.
The planet's natural resources are almost gone, and war is being fought to control the assets of the solar system. The enemy is winning. The salvation may be Tom Raines. Tom doesn't seem like a hero. He's a short fourteen-year-old with bad skin. But he has the virtual-reality gaming skills that make him a phenom behind the controls of the battle drones.
As a new member of the Intrasolar Forces, Tom's life completely changes. Suddenly, he's someone important. He has new opportunities, friends, and a shot at having a girlfriend. But there's a price to pay. . . .
S.J. Kincaid was born in Alabama, raised in California, and graduated from New Hampshire High School. She also interned for a politician in Washington, DC, and earned degrees from Illinois and Ohio universities, but it was while living next to a scary graveyard in Edinburgh, Scotland, that she discovered she wanted to be a writer. Kincaid now lives in California after multiple years, several manuscripts, and several jobs, and Catalyst is the final book in the Insignia trilogy.
