Synopsis
In this first book of an exciting fantasy-adventure trilogy for young readers, contemporary kids are introduced to a galaxy full of pirates, monkeys, and a colorful cast of other creatures--both human and otherwise. On the night Emma Garton's supposedly boring parents are kidnapped, she is forced to face the truth: they've been lying to her about many things, including the Pyxis, a mysterious amulet that holds the key to saving another world--and worse, they aren't even from planet Earth. To find her parents, Emma and her best friend, Herbie, must leave Earth and enter the Strands--the waterways of space, where huge galleons ply the intergalactic seas. But a journey through the constellations won't be easy--not with evil Queen Virgo and every scoundrel in the galaxy determined to find them. In this interstellar adventure, YALSA Alex Award-winning author Zoë Ferraris transports readers to a vast, magical universe filled with fantastical creatures, merciless villains, and fearless heroes.Praise for THE GALAXY PIRATES: HUNT FOR THE PYXIS"[A]bsolutely action-packed." -School Library JournalFrom the Hardcover edition.
