This sixth entry in The Shapeshifter series follows a world where COLAs—Children of Limitless Ability—attend a school that can feel like a safe haven or a prison.

The story tracks loyalty, risk, and the stubborn courage that COLAs summon when their autonomy is threatened. Sparkes pairs fast-paced action with character warmth, witty banter, and a sense of wonder at what it means to belong. The 272-page paperback sustains momentum, while the quieter moments deepen friendship and family ties, inviting re-readings. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThrilling middle-grade sci-fi fantasy by a bestselling author\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePart of The Shapeshifter series, perfect for fans of COLA lore\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e272-page paperback with fast-paced, page-turning narrative\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplores courage, identity, and teamwork in the face of control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAli Sparkes is a British children’s author celebrated for imaginative series like The Shapeshifter, S.W.I.T.C.H., and Frozen in Time.
