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.
