A talented young hacker. A desperate artificial intelligence. The fate of two worlds.
Sixteen-year-old Jaffrey Pewitt holds a life-threatening secret. A genetic outcast, the brilliant teen's academy scores have earned him a position patrolling the mainframe and eliminating rogue program code―a job prohibited to those with his DNA. And when he encounters an illegal AI, she threatens to expose his true identity if he doesn't help her community survive.
Torn between loyalty to his people and protecting himself, Jaffrey walks a knife's edge in a play for more time. But when his superiors upload a massive virtual war machine that causes a lethal power surge, the cost in digital and human lives convinces him that the future of both species may be doomed.
Can Jaffrey choose the right side before it's too late?
Shadow Status is an explosive standalone cyberpunk novel for readers of all ages. If you like clever heroes, intricate puzzles, and deep moral quandaries, then you'll love this electrifying thrill-ride.
Ages 12 and up | ⚠ Some language, simulated violence

Reviews for Shadow Status
"Instant cyberpunk classic . . . The world is compelling and the stakes are high in this cyberpunk thriller." -Speculative 66 Magazine
"It reads like a video game." ―Nancy Farmer, award-winning author of The House of the Scorpion
"Scott's energetic cyberpunk adventure is a story of xenophobia in a dystopian future ravaged by a genetic disease . . . . She folds themes of environmental degradation and genetic manipulation into a fast-paced caper and delivers a satisfying ending to this cautionary but entertaining story. The message of diverse characters working together to solve a common problem will resonate with readers of all ages . . . . Takeaway: Cyberpunk fans will thrill to video-game action and sympathetic characters fighting high-stakes battles. Great for fans of: Stephanie Flint's Huntress, Julian North's Age of Order." ―BookLife, Editor's Pick
"Ender's Game meets Ready Player One. A fascinating, well-developed future world full of action and intrigue. . . .Jaffrey is the best kind of main character: smart, conflicted, and dealing with forces much bigger than he is . . . . Highly recommended for fans of sci-fi and artificial reality, as well as anyone who loves a good dystopian future tale." ―Sarah McCarthy, author of Shadows of Magic
"Hard-hitting, nonstop action, relatably flawed characters, and a dash of hope. Shadow Status is a sharp, mindful story about class, family, and sentience, and what it means to actually live every day like it's your last while being 100% cyberpunk and 100% fun." ―K.A. Doore, Tor Books author of The Perfect Assassin
"Gripping, thought-provoking, and upbeat . . . . Shadow Status is an exciting and wonderfully written dystopian tale with plenty of well-rounded and memorable characters, like Astrid (Jaffrey's precocious younger sister) and Parker (Jaffrey's snarky albino best friend) . . . . This book is overflowing with something vital that we all desperately need right now: hope." ―Michelle Hogmire, Co-Founder of The Haint, Reedsy Discovery
