Titans 12+

About this book

One girl bets her entire future on a race that she has no hope of winning.

How much can you rely on the family you’re born into? What can’t you accomplish with the family you make?

Astrid Sullivan’s family can’t catch a break. Her grandfather played cards and her dad bet on the Titans — half-horse, half-car that race around impossible tracks. They’ve lost their home, their savings, and each other.

So when Astrid makes some new friends who give her the chance to participate in this year’s Titan races, she wonders if it’s worth risking everything. She never thought she’d even touch a Titan, and this one is first gen when the models racing are Titan 3.0s. There’s no way for her to win... but with her family slipping away and her dad without work, Astrid can’t help but feel like the only person she can bet on is herself.

Titans delivers Victoria Scott’s signature blend of incredible action and impossible odds, and will leave readers’ hearts racing.

Reviews

Praise for Victoria Scott:

*"Mind-blowingly intense." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"Scott injects humor and heart for a can't-miss read. Where can I sign up for a Pandora?" -- Kiersten White, author of the New York Times bestselling Paranormalcy trilogy

"Scott holds her own in attitude and taut action, and Tella's voice is feminine, smart, and sassy. Importantly, although male-female chemistry is definitely present, the emotional drive of the novel doesn't rely on romance. Family, camaraderie, and Tella's bond with her furry Pandora companion matter just as much in getting her through the first part of her life-and-death race." -- Publishers Weekly

"Non-stop action and thrilling adventure will keep readers turning the pages... Scott captures the essence of what it means to sacrifice one's self for a loved one." -- Voice of Youth Advocates

"Tella is an especially strong and likable character, which makes this gripping adventure all the more enjoyable." -- Booklist
