Saving the Galaxy for Beginners

By P. J. Hoover

Saving the galaxy was not on their summer to-do list.

When Colton and Penelope discover what looks like a rusty old car in a Roswell junkyard, they don't expect it to launch them-literally-across the galaxy. But seconds later, they're dodging asteroid fields, dealing with sarcastic alien pedestals, and learning about a powerful and sentient Tablet created by the ancient Xaxians.

Because it was so dangerous, the Tablet was separated into pieces and hidden across the galaxy. Of course, evil aliens are racing to reassemble it for, you know, total universal domination. Colton and Penelope need to get to those Tablet pieces first. No biggie.

To stop them, Colton and Penelope will have to solve alien puzzles, survive lava planets, escape giant space spiders, and maybe-just maybe-work together without totally driving each other bonkers. It helps that they've got Ziggy, their bright green alien dog with a scorpion tail, antennae, and a talent for chaos, along for the ride.

Action-packed, hilarious, and full of sci-fi twists, this is one galaxy- sized adventure even beginners can enjoy.
