It is the one hour of the day where they are free to move. At midnight, the clocks stop and the world turns a frozen blue for Rex, Melissa and Dess. Rex, Melissa and Dess are interested in her as well because they can tell she’s one of them.īixby, Oklahoma has a secret. Fresh from Chicago, she has all the cool kids interested in her. When Jessica moves to town, she is immediately heralded as a popular girl. The small Oklahoma town is a stifling blip of humanity in the dessert.

Rex, Melissa and Dess are the outcasts of Bixby High School. Not only did I not drown, I was pleasantly swimming by the first chapter. After reading Extras, however, I was desperate to read something else just as good, so I jumped into this little fantasy world with my eyes closed and my nose plugged. This book was written in 2004, long before I discovered Scott Westerfeld, but the idea of the series never grabbed me. I’m not much of a fan of fantasy, so I avoided this series for a long time.


I just started a new series by Scott Westerfeld with Midnighters: The Secret Hour.
