Mild-mannered Zoe Richards was just your average 6th grader, celebrating her 12th birthday, when an ear-piercing debacle convinced her grandfather to tell her the truth: she's a superhero. And she'd better start training to use her superspeed and superstrength, because pretty soon she's going to be called upon to save the world.

Zoe Quinn lives in Maryland and still loves reading comic books. She is the author of the Caped Sixth Grader series.
