The Out of This World Travel Company Out of This World Series Book

Perfect for fans of Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Rob Reid’s Year Zero, and Catherynne M. Valente’s Space Opera—this cosmic comedy is what happens when your dream vacation becomes a galactic obstacle course.When siblings Ellie and Andrew sign up for a “mystery wilderness adventure,” they expect backpacks, blisters, and maybe a scenic mountain or two. What they don’t expect is to be abducted (sorry, escorted) by aliens running a fledgling intergalactic travel agency trying to break into the Earth tourism market.Instead of tents and trail mix, they get spaceship suites, alien breakfast buffets, and a luxury cruise through the cosmos—followed by a surprise drop onto a gravity-bending planet filled with jungle beasts, lava pits, exploding termite mounds, and a disturbingly high death-by-insect potential. Oh, and a rival alien travel company may or may not be trying to sabotage the whole trip.Armed only with a map, their wits, and wildly varying levels of enthusiasm, Ellie and Andrew must hike, leap, and improvise their way to the extraction point. But when the luxury liner goes boom mid-vacation, their relaxing getaway turns into a galactic survival scramble.Smart, snarky, and wildly imaginative, The Out of This World Travel Company is the first book in a new sci-fi comedy series that proves sometimes the journey is more ridiculous than the destination.
