The Supernaturalist

Title: The Supernaturalist
Author: Eoin Colfer
Reviewer: Luke G.

Cosmo Hill, a boy who was found on Cosmonaut Hill with no parents, lives at Clarissa Frayne Institution, a place where they test a variety of products. Sometimes the products are food, injections, and gases. As time goes on, Cosmo gets tired of his life, runs away and escapes. Three kids, Mona, Ditto, and Stefan take him in to their headquarters where
he finds out that they can see blue creatures, parasites, too. They tell him about the creatures and how they suck the life out of people. Cosmo joins them and starts to fight the parasites with them. But, at a gang fight in downtown, they are captured by the Myishi Corp. and are held there. The leader of Myishi tells them that the parasites are actually good for people who are going to die. The parasites help ease the pain and theynever die. When the leader tells them about her plan to use the parasites to power the satellite and the city, the supernaturalists are outraged.
