A Machine turns 18-year-old Gabe telekinetic…for a terrible price. Nicknamed the bubble, an astonishing new technology isolates users from reality and lets them directly experience quantum effects. Inside the bubble, humans can even manipulate individual atoms. For the computer industry, it’s a dream come true. Except the bubble may have side effects. After being inside the bubble for only a few minutes, eighteen-year-old Gabe Rockwell feels a strange desire to go inside again. He has nightmares and wakes up vomiting in the middle of the night with no idea who he is. Even more troubling, the bubble seems to eat through every kind of radiation shielding known to man...whether it’s plugged in or not. Now, ever since that first time in the bubble, Gabe has been harboring a terrifying secret—a power, whose addictive pull he finds harder and harder to resist with each passing day: he’s developed the ability to move objects with his mind. Combining the genres of young adult, science fiction, and technothriller—and a little romance—God’s Loophole is the first book in a new mind-bending YA action adventure trilogy by Dan Rix. Can Gabe control his telekinesis? Or will his growing power destroy everything he holds dear, including the girl he loves. Keep reading for… A Chilling Sneak Peak of God’s Loophole: Behind him, he heard a whisper. He whipped around and scanned the plastic inner shell of the bubble, skin crawling. Nothing. With altered laws of physics came altered perception, like Jer said. But then he heard it again, beyond the inner shell. Outside the bubble. A voice, whispering his name. A voice he recognized, with a spine-tingling chill. Raedyn’s voice. “Gabriel…” her voice elongated, slipping in and out of focus, “Gabriel, get me out of here…please…” “Raedyn,” he breathed. “Where are you?” “Help me,” she whimpered, “I feel so…lost.” Her words made his heart ache. “Rae, where are you?” “I don’t know, I’m…I’m outside.” She broke into quiet sobs. “Gabe, I’m stuck…” His eyes darted to the hatch. Outside. She was outside the bubble. His chest tightened, pulse climbing. “Rae, I’ll get you out. I promise.” “I’m sorry, Gabe…” Her whisper was drowned out by the crackle of Jer’s voice over the radio. “Gabe, who are you talking to?” “She’s outside,” Gabe said, grabbing the wheel, tugging. “Rae’s stuck outside.” “Gabe…No! Jesus, I’m cycling you down.” “Jer, she’s stuck outside!” “No, she’s at home, she’s safe. It’s not her. If you open the hatch, I can’t bring you back. Don’t do this to me, Gabe.” The words didn’t register. They couldn’t. He had to get Rae. He spun the wheel. One revolution, two revolutions. “Gabe, I’m losing you,” Jer cried, his voice cutting in and out. “Whatever you do, do not break the seal from the inside. Do not break the seal.” He ignored him, dragged the wheel around again. Rae, I’m coming…The inner shell vibrated, cycling down.
