In 1881, New Orleans, brother and sister Ivan and Alexandra Brighton are not respected scientists, but rather tend to believe what they want to believe, however ridiculous, even to their own detriment and humiliation. But when their crazy uncle tells them that the Greek moon goddess's sleepy lover is planning an attack upon Helios, the Greek god of the sun, they are put to the ultimate test. Thankfully for them, Ivan and Alex will stumble upon eleven other misfits and rejects just as willing to believe the outlandish and the ridiculous, who will gladly accompany them on the most bizarre quest of them all: to save the sun. Through ancient curses, humorous disguises, and heartbreaking betrayals, "Ivan & Alex" will take readers on an epic adventure across foreign lands and seas, and to the very edge of the earth.
