Randoms (1)

A science fiction superfan finds himself on his very own space adventure when he€s randomly selected to join an alien confederacy in this hilarious middle grade debut novel.

Zeke Reynolds comes from a long line of proud science fiction geeks. He knows his games, comics, movies, and TV shows like Captain Kirk knows the starship Enterprise. So it€s a dream come true when he learns the science fiction he loves so much is based on reality€"and that he€s been selected to spend a year on a massive space station. To evaluate humanity€s worthiness, the Confederation of United Planets has hand picked three of Earth€s most talented young people€"and then there€s Zeke. He€s the random.

Unfortunately, Zeke finds life in space more challenging than he€d hoped. When he saves his transport ship from a treacherous enemy attack, he€s labeled a war criminal. Now despised by the Confederation, rejected by his fellow humans, and pursued by a ruthless enemy, Zeke befriends the alien randoms: rejected by their own species, but loyal to each other. But their presence in the Confederation may not be so random after all, and as the danger increases, Zack€s knowledge of science fiction might be the only thing that can save himself, his friends, and Earth itself.
