XGeneration is a teen paranormal thriller series inspired by classic superhero comics and the 1980s. This box set contains the first three books: You Don't Know Me, The Watchers, and Silent Generation.~~~ABOUT YOU DON'T KNOW MEIn the fall of 1984, Cold War tensions between Washington and Moscow are close to breaking. But in sleepy Gainesville, Florida, fourteen-year-old Janis Graystone is mainly worried about starting high school, earning a spot on the varsity soccer team, and keeping her older sister from running her life. And then there are her paranormal experiences. Experiences where she awakens in her backyard — out of her body — with the disturbing sense that someone is watching her. For Scott Spruel, the start of high school means the chance to start over. And he's willing to ditch everything — computer hacking, Dungeons & Dragons marathons, even his comic book collection (well, except for his X-Men) — if it means getting closer to Janis, the secret love of his life. But what about the eavesdropper on his telephone line, a presence he senses through powers he is only beginning to understand? As clocks tick down, Janis and Scott will need the other's help. But first they'll have to find one another and that means traversing Thirteenth Street High's caste system — a system that can be as brutal as it is unforgiving.ABOUT THE WATCHERSBeing a telepath is no picnic, something Janis is learning firsthand. In the wake of a brutal attack and new warnings of a group with dark designs on her powers, Janis finds herself withdrawing from those closest to her, even the friend she's falling for. Scott senses Janis's growing distance, and he'll do anything to help her. That's what friends are for, right? But will using his supernatural abilities only cement his deadly fate — the one Janis is trying to protect him from? Bad boy Tyler Bast has a secret. A few of them, actually. But what if someone else knows What Happened? The answer could destroy him. After all, some deeds are best left buried. As menaces converge and choices dwindle, Janis, Scott, and Tyler must decide: hide their powers or risk everything to confront ... the Watchers.ABOUT SILENT GENERATIONIt’s decision time for the teens of Oakwood: join the Champions and develop their supernatural abilities or be expelled from the neighborhood — and each other’s lives — forever. For Janis, there are no clear answers. It doesn’t help that she and Scott disagree over the Program’s intentions. Janis just wants to know what happened to the last team. Is that so crazy? And why does Director Kilmer seem determined to keep that information a mystery? Flashback to 1961 Washington, D.C., where shape shifter Reginald Perry is struggling with his own questions. Namely, who’s assassinating his fellow Champions? His quest will carry him deep inside the nation’s power centers, but can he resurface before becoming a target himself? Or has someone already marked the last Champion from that era for death? Past, present, and the pervasive peril of nuclear war merge in this explosive installment.
