Cram ten hormonal teens into a spaceship and blast off: that’s the premise for the ill-conceived reality show Waste of Space. The kids who are cast know everything about drama—and nothing about the fact that the production is fake. Hidden in a desert warehouse, their spaceship replica is equipped with state-of-the-art special effects dreamed up by the scientists partnering with the shady cable network airing the show.
And it’s a hit! Millions of viewers are transfixed. But then, suddenly, all communication is severed. Trapped and paranoid, the kids must figure out what to do when this reality show loses its grip on reality.

"A sure pick for fans of sci-fi spoofs, black humor, and unusual formats." —Booklist "Intriguing and at times hilarious . . ." –SLJ
"This edgy, madcap romp will have wide appeal.

PRAISE FOR HELLHOLE * "Hilarious—all the way through." —Kirkus, starred review "Damico draws readers into this quirky novel with well-written prose, believable characters, and an evenly plotted story line." —School Library Journal "Damico's blend of bleak humor and harsh reality lends itself well to Max's social awkwardness and Lore's biting cynicism, while Burg is outrageously appalling." —Publishers Weekly "The snarky Burg, Max's tendency to catch things one step too late but with wry humor, and the absurd piling on of events all work to make a quite amusing, if very dark, novel." —Bulletin PRAISE FOR CROAK "Go ahead and die laughing, knowing that the safe transport of your mortal soul will be the summer job of a sweetheart teen with godlike power and discipline problems. A lot of books make me wish I could live within their pages, but I wouldn't mind dying in this one." —Adam Rex, author of Fat Vampire "Creepy and hilarious." —VOYA, 4Q, 5P PRAISE FOR SCORCH "An amusing blend of whimsy and humor with serious drama and blood." —Kirkus Reviews "Characters are always as clever as we wish we were. . . . An irresistible blend of impending doom, irreverent humor, hormone-fueled make-out sessions, and creative world-building make this sequel stronger than its predecessor and will leave readers dying for the next book." —School Library Journal PRAISE FOR ROGUE "A gut-wrenching, laugh-out-loud, gritty, honest and brave ending to an appealing trilogy." —Kirkus "Fans of Croak and Scorch will be dying to get their hands on this third and final book about Lex and her teenage grim-reaper friends and relations." —VOYA, 3Q 4P J S
