Shutterbug Allison Lee is trying to survive
high school while suffering the popular girl's abuse. Her life is often
abysmal, but at least her green hair is savage. Her talent for photography is
recognized by the school paper and the judges of a photo contest.
While
visiting her friend Joe, a homeless vet, Allison's life irrevocably changes
after an attack leaves her blind. All her dreams as a photojournalist are
dashed as she realizes she'll never see again. Despair sets in until she is
offered an experimental procedure to restore her vision. But there are side
effects, or are they hallucinations? She now sees dragons accompanying some of
the people she meets. Can she trust her eyes, or has the procedure affected her
more than she can see?
Our
Review: This
remarkable story is perfect for those who have ever suffered abuse simply
because they’re different in some way, either by appearance or abilities—or for
those who understand the helplessness and despair of watching the young person
they love suffer, knowing there is little they can do to make things
better.
