  • Blowback '94: When the Only Way Forward Is Back

    Brian Meehl

    eBook (Twisko Press, Feb. 11, 2020)
    Iris Jongler-Jinks is about to make her greatest discovery yet. If you want to rescue someone who's lost in the past--DIY--do it yourself. In BLOWBACK '07, Iris discovered her family's ancient cor anglais--the Horn of Angels--that sends time voyagers to the past to heal their destinies. She's certain it's where her mother is--marooned in the past. In BLOWBACK '63, Iris discovered that her twin brother Arky is the worst time traveler to ever century hop, much less return with good intel on where their mother might be. Now it's Iris's turn. She is hurled to a time that dreams are made of. A place where her quest to find their mom throws Iris into the company of Henri Toulouse-Lautrec, Edgar Degas, and the most scandalous performer the Moulin Rouge has ever known: Le Petomane. But Iris's mission isn't all legends and the City of Light. Her time-travel trashing brother crashes the party. And the siren calls of the past that seem to have bewitched their mother begin to work their spellbinding magic on Iris...and even Arky. Who will make it home? Who will find home in the past?
  • Suck It Up

    Brian Meehl

    eBook (Delacorte Books for Young Readers, May 13, 2008)
    ★ "Meehl's contribution to the growing subgenre of YA vampire novels is very, very funny...witty one-liners pile up while Meehl exploits every known vampire cliche to great comic effect...A refreshing take on the vampire romance, with a misfit vampire protagonist readers are certain to love."--Publishers Weekly, Starred Are you up to your neck in bloodsucking vampire stories?Tired of those tales about dentally enhanced dark lords?Before I wrote this book I thought all vampires were night-stalking, fangpopping, bloodsucking fiends. Then I met Morning McCobb. He's a vegan vampire who drinks a soy-blood substitute called Blood Lite. He believes staking should be a hate crime. And someday he hopes to march in a Vampire Pride Parade. He was also the first vampire to out himself and try to show people of mortality, like you and me, that vampires are just another minority with special needs. Trust me--this is like no other vampire book you'll ever feed on. So, as my buddy Morning says, "Pop the lid, and suck it up.""Appealing characters and an original vampire world. Delightful for those who like their romance vaguely paranormal, their adventure romantic and their vampires defanged."--Kirkus Reviews "A flawed and affable protagonist . . . snarky humor, outsider-looking-in perspective, and fresh new takes on the familiar."--School Library Journal you up to your neck in bloodsucking vampire stories?
  • Blowback '07: When the Only Way Forward Is Back

    Brian Meehl

    eBook (Twisko Press, July 27, 2020)
    Clashing teenage twins Arky and Iris have one thing in common: an ancient musical instrument left to them by their mother. When Iris plays the strangely curved woodwind, the trouble begins; Arky's friend, Matt, the school's star quarterback, disappears. Transported to 1907 and the Carlisle Indian School, Matt is forced to play football for Coach Pop Warner as the Carlisle ''Redmen'' revolutionize Ivy League football and invent the passing game. Matt's struggle to ''play his way home'' is complicated when he falls in love with a Native American girl. Meanwhile, Arky and Iris discover a cache of secrets that might bring Matt back, and lead to the ultimate rescue: their mother, trapped in the past. BLOWBACK '07 launches a century-spanning trilogy to be continued in BLOWBACK '63 and BLOWBACK '94. Books two and three propel Arky and Iris to the illuminating past, and transform them in ways they never imagined. After all, as their mother once cautioned, ''Every road to the future winds through the past.''
