  About the book: The Supernaturalist was a really good book for kids that are into future stuff. So if you like old time western books, this isn't for you.  The setting of the book is in this futuristic city called Satellite City. 14 year old Cosmo Hill enters the world unwanted by his parents. What a tragedy! So he is sent to this place called Clarissa Frayne Institute for Parentally Challenged boys. Freight class.

 At Clarissa Frayne, the boys are put to work testing things by the state! What they are testing is some very dangerous products! At the end of most days they are covered in burns, sores, and bruises! Cosmo realizes that if he doesn't escape, he will eventually die at this so-called orphanage.

When the moment finally comes, Cosmo takes his chance and busts out of Clarissa Frayne. But with the help of the Supernaturalists. They are a crew of kids who all have the same ability as Cosmo. They can see supernatural Parasites, those are creatures who feed on the life  force of humans. Say if you had a cut, they would suck it dry and try to kill you. The Supernaturalists go out and patrol at night to try and save people from the Parasites. Or so they think that they are helping people out! Read this book to find out what they do!

I liked this book because the style of this author is really good. I liked how he said things. He said them in a way that I couldn't describe. So I really recommend this book to teens and preteens. Also Adults would probably like it too.  I don't have anything that I didn't like about this book.
