Inhaltsangabe

From bestselling UK author Sophia McDougall comes one fresh and funny adventure-filled tween debut about a group of kids evacuated to Mars! Perfect for fans of Artemis Fowl, this laugh-out-loud series is packed with nonstop fun.

When Earth comes under attack by aliens, hilarious heroine Alice Dare and a select group of kids are sent to Mars. But things get very strange when the adults disappear into thin air, the kids face down an alien named Thsaaa, and Alice and her friends must save the galaxy!

For when plucky twelve-year-old Alice Dare learns she's being taken out of the Muckling Abbott School for Girls and sent to another planet, no one knows what to expect. This is one wild ride that will have kids chuckling the whole way through.


Being sent to another planet is just the beginning of Alice’s problems:


  • Kids in Space: When aliens attack Earth, Alice Dare is evacuated from her boarding school... all the way to Mars.
  • A Mysterious Disappearance: The mission seems safe until every adult on the planet vanishes into thin air, leaving the kids in charge of their own destiny.
  • Funny Female Protagonist: Twelve-year-old Alice is clever, plucky, and has a hilarious take on saving the world, making her a hero you’ll root for from the very first page.
  • Found Family: To survive, Alice must team up with the brilliant but strange Josephine and the reckless but charming Carl in this action-packed Middle Grade science fiction adventure.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The fact that someone had decided that I would be safer on Mars, where you could still only sort of breathe the air, and sort of not get sunburned to death, was a sign that the war with the aliens was not going fantastically well.

I was worried that I was about to be told that my mother's spacefighter had been shot down, so when I found out that I was being evacuated to Mars, I was pretty calm.

And, despite everything that happened to me and my friends afterward, I'd do it all again. Because until you have been chased by invisible aliens, befriended a robot goldfish, and tried to save the galaxy, I don't think you can say that you've really lived.

If the same thing happens to you, here's my advice: always carry duct tape.
