When a meteorite falls near her campsite in the San Rafael Wilderness, troubled teen Leona Hewitt ventures down into the crater looking for a souvenir. What she discovers changes her life. Contained in the meteorite is a sticky, mucous-like fluid that bends light, cannot itself be seen, and seems to grow in the presence of living tissue. It’s drawn to her. But when a government team arrives in hazmat suits and cordons off the meteorite impact site, Leona questions her decision to take it home with her. For one thing, there are rumors of an extraterrestrial threat. For another, it has been speaking to her. It wants to be worn . . . stretched on like a second skin. It’s seeking out her weaknesses, exploiting her deepest fear—that the only boy she’s ever loved will unearth the vile secret in her past and see her as a monster. Now it promises salvation. It can make her invisible.

By Summer Jane Translucent is a thrilling adventure that had me on the edge of my seat at times but never feels rushed or cliche and it's definitely not dull in any way. At all.Okay, so, you know how many, many books in this genre have fallen prey to the "insta-love" or "this thing that is happening is magical or scientific, but we're not going to explain it and we don't have to, just accept that it's magical and move on" tropes? Translucent doesn't have either one of those things. The story is haunting, gripping, and you really, reeeeeeally want to understand what's really happening underneath the surface. At times I thought I knew what was going on, but couldn't quite put my finger on it and I was really pleasantly surprised by that. I really, really loathe how so many authors today seem to drop heavy clues along the way of their "mystery" and you've figured out in chapter 6 what's going to happen in chapter 38 and it's just annoying because I want to be taken on that characters journey. Discover it with them. Dan Rix does exactly that.Also, can I just say that I also really just adore how the main character in the book isn't some amazing person with an amazing destiny and journey because she was created by a special star and she, and only she, is the only person who can stop the world from coming to a horrible, crumbling end? Yeah, I really adored that. I could feel her hesitation, her fear, her frustration. Not to say at times I didn't want to slap some sense into her, but the point is: I can easily see a real person making these decisions. She wasn't some girl who always made the right choices or someone who was the savior of the world but "just didn't know it or believe it yet!", and that truly (TRULY, people!) made me happy.I don't know how he wrote from the point of view of a teenage girl so well, but he did/does and it's fantastic. There's just enough science-y jargon to make it believable (I won't do any spoilers) but some of the things I was sitting there going, "Well, for sci-fi, this honestly doesn't seem that far fetched. Actually, it seems pretty downright scary."So, if you're looking for a read to suck you in and take you on an adventure, you're headed in the right direction. Be warned, though. There are parts of this book that are really quite dark and sad. The mystery uncovers as you read on through the second book and a lot more things come to light. It's well, well worth it. Now I'm just waiting on book 3. I MIGHT DIE WAITING. So, you know, if I do, someone please read book 3 at my grave because I REALLY NEED TO KNOW.

Excellent start to what should be an amazing series By Cu's Reviews While I've heard of Mr. Rix and his work before (I've been on his mailing list for a long time), I'd never gotten the chance to actually read anything by him before. I'm glad this book was my first glimpse into the worlds he weaves.Translucent follows Leona Hewitt, a teenager with a few secrets that alter her life forever. It also gives the reader in depth glances into the lives of her friends, Megan and Emory. Leona's secrets affect them too.This book is absolutely amazing. I'm not a big fan of science fiction, but this book had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. The storyline is so well plotted and developed as are the characters. The story-line is unique and original, I've read a lot of sci-fi (just cause I'm not a big fan doesn't mean I won't read it) and watched a lot of movies and I've never seen this particular scenario played out like this before The reader won't be able to help but fall into this world head first. There's enough spine-tingling things going on to get the heart thumping and the adrenaline flowing, and enough emotions running rampant that the reader will feel like they are watching the scenes unfold like some invisible specter.I highly recommend this book to any lover of science fiction, especially the kind of aliens, this is sure to be a favorite by many lovers of the genre.For you cliffhanger haters, be warned there IS a cliffhanger ending that is the lead in to the next book. I, for one, happen to love a good cliffhanger >~.^ Translucent, by Dan Rix
