International bestseller and multiple Dragon Award finalist Michaelbrent Collings invites you on a journey into the farthest reaches of space…because sometimes that's where you find yourself at home. It was supposed to be a walk in the park—literally. Just a quick trip into Muir Woods to grab a few samples for a science lab, then back home again (for better or worse). But life doesn’t always go as planned, and a three-hour hike in the woods turned into a three-hundred-light-year trip to another galaxy when Max, Noah, Leya, and Chloe get kidnapped by a trio of aliens surveying Earth. Now, light years from home—from parents, from friends, from everything they know and love—four kids are about to find themselves in the middle of an intergalactic war of extermination. A war that, if lost, will mean not only the death of their new friends, but the end of humanity. On the bright side, their lab project is going to blow the teacher’s mind. Assuming they can survive long enough to get home…and assuming there’s still a home to get back to. Mixing the action and sci-fi adventure of Suzanne Collins’ The Hunger Games and Neil Shusterman’s Scythe with the suspense, thrills, and humor of Stranger Things and Goonies, Michaelbrent Collings’ Light Years From Home is an adventure like no other. Grab your copy and begin the adventure today!
