The bestselling author of The Land of Stories and A Tale of Magic returns with a funny, heartfelt, action-packed adventure to save the world! Perfect for fans of Guardians of the Galaxy.
Eleven-year-old Roswell Johnson is obsessed with space and life beyond our planet. So, when he's accidentally abducted in a spaceship, it feels like his biggest dream has come true - aliens are real!
With the sinister General Xelic and his evil army of Reptoids planning to attack Earth, Roswell must team up with a quirky group of other-worldly beings: a Mantis with a fear of germs, a Cyborg programmed to take everything literally, a telepathic Pleiadean, two bickering Grays, and an overly confident Fungarian.
Can Roswell and his eccentric gang of alien adventurers save Earth from invasion?
Or is life as we know it doomed?
A page-turning adventure that's truly out of this world. -- Kirkus
This is a madcap science fiction adventure that zooms all over the galaxy. Billed as one for fans of Guardians of the Galaxy, it captures that film's comic sensibilities, pop culture references, and sets up cinematic set pieces you could imagine on the big screen. There is some sly wit and social commentary scattered throughout, as
well as some not so sly toilet jokes, and the message of kindness, tolerance, and diversity shines through.
