Fourteen year old Cosmo is a no sponsor living in Satellite City. Life for a no sponsor is no picnic. Cosmo is a resident of on orphanage that uses the children as guinea pigs for food and drug testing. The life expectancy of a no sponsor is 15 years and Cosmo knows his time is just about up. But a malfunction in the satellite feed that runs just about everything in the city allows Cosmo a chance to escape. Unfortunately, the escape leaves him seriously injured. As he lies dying, a small blue creature lands on his chest and begins to feed. Desperately fighting the creature, Cosmo knows he is a goner. But then he meets one of the supernaturalists -- a ragtag group of young people who have dedicated themselves to destroying the Parasites that suck energy from injured people. When Cosmo joins the group, he learns about the mysteriouscreatures that only a few can even see. Are the creatures what they seem to be? And why is the Myishi Corp so interested in them?(Booktalk borrowed from www.nancykeane.com)
