Evading the authorities. Chasing the rabbits. \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Now high school sophomores, the self-styled “Freaks” are back in class in quiet Quapaw City, Arkansas. They grapple with the ordinary challenges of everyday teen life: cliques, cars, and crushes. While everything appears normal on the surface, looks have rarely been more deceiving. A secret government task force—fully aware of the unusual powers the Freaks have acquired—is determined to capture them. Even as the mysterious Baltar Sterne shares ancient wisdom and offers hope, a new menace silently emerges in the woods outside of town. Clever, inexorable, and far more lethal than the Freaks’ first superhuman foe, this traveler from another world possesses powers that can only be described as godlike. The Freaks and their town will be tested in horrific ways they are powerless to predict or even imagine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Riley weaves explorations of anger issues and budding romance as well  as forthrightly confronted themes of racial, religious, and class  conflict.”\u003cstrong\u003e—\u003ci\u003eKirkus Book Review\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Travelers \u003c\/em\u003e is interesting, thought provoking, and adds an unexpected emotional layer as the Freaks continue their journey to adulthood.”\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e—\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDon Sauer, \u003cem\u003ePopCultureGuy.com\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Riley possesses a rare, writerly ability to remain in the moment once  the action heats up.
