From Griffin McElroy, co-author of the New York Times bestselling graphic novel series The Adventure Zone, comes a laugh-out-loud science fiction thrill ride you won't be able to put down.
Choose Your Own Adventure books—the 4th bestselling children's series of all time—are back and as much fun as you remember. Kids and adults agree, these are the books that get 9- to 12-year-olds reading.
In the farthest reaches of a war-torn galaxy, a military transport cruiser barrels toward a supermassive black hole. The crew has vanished. The security drones have gone haywire. And the ship has flown light years off-course. It falls to a single passenger to decide the fate of this doomed voyage—a stowaway tucked into a pocket of the ship's hull. Unfortunately for the reader, YOU are that stowaway.
It's your turn to sit at the table with your friendly neighbourhood Game Master Griffin McElroy as he guides you down paths both hilarious and harrowing. Can you evade deadly robots, find the missing crew, and escape the ship before it reaches its final, fatal destination? Or will the Astral Order get you first?
