Publisher Description

Best-selling author Patrick Carman delivers his first novel for teens with a page-turner that explores the dark side of having a superpower. In Thirteen Days to Midnight, Carman presents a close circle of friends who find themselves facing intriguing questions: Can a life really be saved? Or is it a fool's game to deny death's insistence? And even if possible, would saving one life mean bringing doom upon another-or creating a harmful rift in the fabric of the world?

"Surprised me, it was better then i thought it would be by long. It was all death and evil power, just one power and a friggin cool one. Then somebody goes crazy and all hell breaks loose as they have to kill her a million times but worry they may kill her one too many times on accident. Woops. "

— Niky (4 out of 5 stars)

    " This was such a good book.In the middle it was a little hard too figure out what was going on but everything turned out okay and the book ended in a nice close. "

    " Overall this was a good book. It was easy to read and nothing dragged on. But still... when I read the back of the book I expected so much more. I won't give details since I don't like to ruin the book for other people who haven't read it...so sorry if this review is kind of vague. "

    " Characters were annoying and plot became boring and slow. Didn't have the desire to finish it. Only made it halfway through before giving up. The premise was promising and the idea was unique, but it just didn't follow through with good characters, dialog or plot. Big red buzzer on all three. "

    " Curious book - boy has the power of invincibility that he thinks he can transfer to save people, like a superpower. But, each transfer takes its toll. Fascinating religious thread/implications. Weird and interesting connection to Houdini. Very thought-provoking, definitely disturbing in parts. "

    " this book was too long for me, like i don't mean like LONG but the story didn't get to the point. When you read it it's like the suspense is not consistent and you keep on waiting for the exciting part to come, but it doesn't. i didn't like it at all, and the ending was too predictable. "

    " It was Asoka book starting. SUPER confusing, REALLY hard to understand, VERY mysterious and UBER just not a good thing. Creepy, Jacob and Milo had to kill Oh 27 times, mostly electrocution and it's just not right, how she was all monetary and suicidal and stuff. Just not right. "
