The most current and complete guide to a favorite teen genre, this
book maps current releases along with perennial favorites,
describing and categorizing fantasy, paranormal, and science
fiction titles published since 2006. Speculative fiction continues
to be of consuming interest to teens, so if you work with that age
group, keeping up with the explosion of new titles in this category
is critical. Likewise, understanding the many genres and subgenres
into which these titles fall-wizard fantasy, alternate worlds,
fantasy mystery, dystopian fiction, science fantasy, and more-is
also key if you want to motivate young readers and direct them to
books they'll enjoy. Written to help you master a complex array of
genres and titles, this guide includes more than 1,500 books, most
published since 2006, organizing them by genre, subgenre, and
theme. Subgenres growing in popularity such as "steampunk" are
highlighted to keep you current with the latest trends. The guide
will serve three audiences. Of course, you can turn to it as you
help your teenage patrons select the books and genres that will
interest them most. Teen readers, whether devoted fans or
newcomers, can use it themselves to find titles and subgenres they
might like. In addition, the guide will help teachers and parents
match students with the right books. Encompasses a wide selection
of speculative fiction genres to suit a broad spectrum of readers
in grades 6-12 Identifies award-winning titles, grade levels, book
club potential, and alternative media formats and provides complete
bibliographic information for each title Includes interviews with
prominent authors that convey the perspectives of the creators of
the worlds into which readers are drawn Covers some children's
