About this product
Product Information
Lois Lane is starting a new life in Metropolis. Lois has lived all over - and seen all kinds of things. But now her family is putting down roots in the big city, and Lois is determined to fit in. Stay quiet. Keep out of trouble. As soon as she steps into her new high school, though, she can see it won't be that easy. A group known as the Warheads is making life miserable for another girl at school. They're messing with her mind somehow, via the high-tech immersive videogame they all play. Not cool. Armed with her wit and her new snazzy job as a reporter, Lois has her sights set on solving this mystery. But sometimes it's all a bit much. Thank goodness for her maybe-more-than-a friend, someone she knows only by his screenname, SmallvilleGuy...

Reviews
Bond clearly intends to spin out the mystery over a series. Her Lois Lane is an endearing mix of spikiness and vulnerability., This is a story with a strong female protagonist. Lois is smart and gutsy. . . .The plot is well paced; the reader is immediately pulled into the story and taken for an enjoyable ride. A bit of romance, plenty of adventure, and intrigue add up to a tale that will engage most teen readers., This is one of the most amazing books I have read in recent times, it might even make it into my top ten. . . .Full of convincing descriptions and rich language, it is bound to hit the bestsellers list with a smash!, FALLOUT is fresh, engaging, and impossible to put down. From the first page, readers will be captivated by the voice of Lois Lane, narrator and rebel with a hundred causes., Though there have been so many superhero-related books and movies lately, this one really stands out with its intriguing plot and character development. It puts the spotlight on an awesome female character and surrounds her with a diverse cast of characters. I can't wait for the sequel., Lois can't let it stand, so with her wit, her brand new reporter's credentials, and the help of mysterious online friend, Smallville Guy, she's determined to get to the bottom of things. This creative reimagining of classic DC character Lois Lane is first in a series; make sure to pick up the second, newly released volume, Lois Lane: Double Down, too!, It's not a bird, it's not a plane, it's Lois Lane, boldly following clues wherever they lead, taking readers along for a thrilling ride., Fast paced enough to appeal to today's impatient young adult readers, Fallout is a great guilty pleasure read for their parents as well., ...Lois picks up the girl-detective mantle with enough sass and spunk to earn her a place among other recent undercover heroines . . .the novel is a possible choice for readers who want to see Lois step into the spotlight, and it may be an option for those who want their feisty teen mystery with a side of Superman fandom., ...Bond's take on the character already shows traces of the qualities that have made Lois Lane such a role model. She stands up for what she believes in while still pursuing the truth. . . .But at the end of the day, she still has all the insecurities and worries a teenage girl would have--not unlike her sleuthing contemporaries, Veronica Mars and Nancy Drew., Just the first chapter of Fallout told me that Bond gets Lois Lane. Lois is tenacious, fearless (or at least knows how to pretend to be), and never hesitates to do the right thing no matter how much trouble she might get in. Lois is likable and relatable, the perfect YA heroine, and I want her to be my BFF immediately., ...be inspired by Gwenda Bond's "Fallout"...the first novel in her series about Superman's Lois Lane as a high school journalist out to uncover the truth behind a creepy mind control experiment., Bond's Lois is a distillation of the most compelling traits of past incarnations of Lois Lane. She's got the brash ambition of 1938's Lois, the crusader for truth and justice qualities embodied by Margot Kidder, and the snark and smarts of Dana Delany's animated Lois. While she may just be a high school student, she's very much the Lois Lane that fans know and love., Author Gwenda Bond writes the young Lois Lane with all the tenacity and intelligence her older counterpart displays in the comics. . . .Sticking true to Lane's nature, Bond makes it clear that She is a heroine for the ages, and doesn't need a dystopian society to prove her worth. . . .Lois shines and Lois Lane: Fallout is a fantastic example of expanding the DC Universe. It is a book even non-YA readers will enjoy., Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Young reporters make great protagonists, see. Fiction has a long and proud tradition of producing lovable, insatiable, distinctive, and tireless journalists. . . .Would any list of intrepid fictional reporters be complete without Lois Lane? Negative, and here she is as a fiercely independent high-schooler., ...should appeal not only to YA readers, but fans of the heroine who may have felt neglected with 20 page comics lately., ...everything a contemporary superhero adaptation novel should be: funny, smart, and with just the right balance of action and suspense. It's got just enough references to the world of Superman to hook in anyone who picked it up for that reason, but the story belongs entirely to Lois, shows her adventures as a journalist and her growth as a young woman finding a place to belong., Lois is a clever, determined and brave heroine who drives the story with a modern, humorous voice that makes the high school setting work well. . . .Young adult readers will definitely appreciate this fresh take on classic characters no matter how familiar they may already be., ...[a] somewhat plausible tale of bullying, mind-control, and gaming, with a hint of alien activity. . . .Students inclined to make things right in the world may relate to the protagonist..., Gwenda Bond concocts an intelligent novel that moves faster than a speeding bullet. . . .Lois proves a model of trusting one's instincts and standing up for what's right--the rest will follow. May this be the first of many more., STAR REVIEW! Lois is as fully rounded as she is in the comics, headstrong, smart, capable, and equipped with a solid moral compass. Bond supplies her with plenty of interesting supporting characters to bounce off, establishing a world worthy of a series. . . . This lighthearted and playful tone permeates the novel, making for a nifty investigative mystery akin to Veronica Mars or Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Readers are in for a treat. A spectacular prose start for DC Comics' spectacular lady., ...Fallout's publication is exciting news for anyone who thinks Superman's main squeeze has gotten a short shrift in the comics and movies..., While Fallout is not a comic book, let's try not to hold that against it; it is a book starring one of the most enduring and influential characters in American comics, front and center where she belongs... and way too rarely ever appears in comics., Finally, finally our favorite intrepid journalist is getting her due. . . .Picture this: Lois Lane as the snarky, whip-smart Veronica Mars character she was before she stood her ground alongside the Man of Steel., Teenage army brat Lois Lane (yes, that Lois Lane) moves with her family to Metropolis, becomes a fledgling journalist, and takes on local bullies., If you're a fan of comics, this has been an exciting year. We've seen tons of new comics, but even more exciting is that we've seen many of these comics and comic heroes find their way into novelizations for YA readers. What's been great about this is that the novelizations have, in many ways, allowed female comic stories to be told in a fuller light., I loved this incarnation of Lois Lane. She is focused, single-minded and determined. . . .It's also nice and pacy, making for both a satisfying and page-turning reading experience. . . .Fallout is a great new entry in the Superman universe. I want to read more about the fabulous, crusading Lois, and I'll be interested to watch SmallvilleGuy gradually integrate himself into the proceedings., You had me at Lois Lane. . . .I love her sassiness and wit, and I love her passion to help and to never be defeated even when the odds are against her. I love her realness and how the reader can relate to her. . . .Reading this book, I found myself completely mesmerized and gripped with the story. I thoroughly enjoyed it and didn't want it to finish., Bond cleverly reimagines star reporter Lois Lane as a teenager today. . . .Superman fans will delight in the nicely detailed ties to the man of steel, while enjoying Bond's focus on the fearless reporter. . . .it's pretty clear what steps will lead to the happy ending, but to Bond's credit, the dry wit of the narrative and the satisfyingly coy online romance between Lois Lane and Smallville Guy make each of those steps delightful.
