Lissa Price is the internationally bestselling author of the STARTERS series published by Penguin Random House. The duology was published in twenty-nine countries and praised by Harlan Ellison and the LA Times. Set in a future Los Angeles, this YA futuristic thriller series poses the question: Would you rent out your body to the elderly so they could be young again temporarily? Dean Koontz called STARTERS “a smart, swift, inventive, altogether gripping story.” Kirkus said the sequel, ENDERS, also a bestseller, was “delightfully disturbing.” You can visit her at LissaPrice.com
