(BookSurge Publishing, Feb. 9, 2009)
Robbie White is a straight-A student, talented musician and sporting hero, yet he has no close friends. Nathan Deane is an intelligent, quick-witted and popular boy who is good at practically everything he turns his hand to, but he feels that no one really understands him. These two fifteen-year-olds form a friendship so strong that they become virtually inseparable. This, and their relentless quest for excellence, earns them the title SUPER-TWINS. Although they doggedly refuse to conform to the adolescent stereotype, Robbie and Nathan still have to confront the same issues of growing up and getting a life that most teenage boys face. When Robbie is struck down with a sudden and life-threatening illness, however, both boys’ lives are put into perspective and they realise that their friendship and devotion to each other is all that really matters. Nathan’s steadfastness during this time is a major factor in Robbie’s recovery and strengthens still further the bond between them.
