Tangled Truths

A young adult sci fi space opera adventure

By: K. E. Brungardt

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In the midst of the awkward and bewildering journey through puberty, Jessi's life takes an unexpected turn when her hair starts talking to her – in her head.

But it's not just any kind of chitchat; my hair helps me on school tests, gives unwanted advice, and worse, it can do things. Like, really do things. Imagine your locks reaching out to grab your hairbrush or style itself without your consent. That's my bizarre new reality.

As I grapple with the changes taking place in my body, I can't help but wonder: Is this hair-raising phenomenon a normal part of growing up? Are other kids going through the same bizarre hair-versations? Who can I ask to find out? Answer: no one.

Determined to regain control over my unruly mane and establish myself as the boss of my own body, I embark on an extraordinary adventure filled with humor, heart, and hair-raising challenges. Along the way, I discover that my unique condition might be the key to unlocking incredible abilities hidden within myself. But first, I must convince my sentient strands that some ground rules are necessary. After all, my hair can't just grow to any length it desires or run wild with its own agenda!

Join Jessi on an unforgettable coming-of-age journey where she faces the trials of adolescence head-on – quite literally – in a hair-raising tale of self-discovery, friendship, and the ultimate battle for control.

"Tangled Truths" is a delightful and whimsical story that will have readers of all ages laughing, cringing, and cheering on Jessi as she takes on her talkative tresses and navigates the hairy business of growing up.

This novella is the prequel to The Amorphan Effect: Book One of the Universal Shapeshifter series by K. E. Brungardt.
