After the past year turned Elvie's life on its head, you'd think that rescuing her infant child from the kid's not-so-dead grandmother and the evil Dr. Marsden would be a piece of cake. And it is—assuming you like your cake in the shape of hijacked spaceships, seedy orbiting ozone-processing facilities, and cryptic ancient Martian secrets. Elvie jets off into the cosmos with only one goal: Get. Her. Baby. Back. But on the eve of all-out planetary war, things can get hairy quickly. Soon newly discovered truths will lead Elvie to the forgotten origins of life on Earth and into a confrontation that could determine the fates of no less than four species desperate to survrive. You know, just your average Wednesday.
Co-written by Lisa Graff (under the pen name Isla Neal) & Martin Leicht.
praise for The Ever-Expanding Universe trilogy!
VOYA
“Juno meets Aliens, sort of, in this wacky debut novel. Sixteen-year-old Elvie Nara’s wisecracking voice is the perfect vehicle for her description of encounters with threatening aliens. An extremely clever premise that is skillfully carried off by the authors.”
Kirkus Reviews
“This science-fiction–comic romp set in a space-based school for pregnant teens hits the funny bone and adds in an alien conflict for good measure. . . . Fans of science fiction and zany comedy should both be satisfied. Pure fun.”
Booklist
“The Ever-Expanding Universe series drips with sci-fi kitsch, including ray-gun-toting aliens and 1980s John Hughes nostalgia. There’s something refreshing about these witty, cursing, sarcastic teen mothers in space, led by a sharp, knowledgeable, and vulnerable young heroine.”
