When twelve-year-old Nova Reyes finds a dusty, forbidden old astronomy book in her grandfather's attic, she doesn't expect it to be a MAP.
But Myths and Marvels of Astronomy isn't just a book of ancient star-lore, comet panics, and pyramid secrets - it's a puzzle box, hidden inside real history. Every chapter hides a clue. Every myth hides a truth. And somebody else wants the book very badly.
Joined by her best friends - code-cracking Priya, telescope-obsessed Max, and skeptical new kid Theo - Nova follows the book's trail through the greatest astronomy mysteries, ancient legends, and scientific hoaxes in history: star-reading astrologers, the secret star-alignment of the Great Pyramid, a Swedish mystic's wild visions of other worlds, exploding stars, the mysterious rings of Saturn, comets mistaken for doomsday omens, the infamous 1835 Great Moon Hoax, and the ancient dreamers who first drew pictures in the stars - the constellations themselves.
Racing against a rival collector who wants the Star Chart Society's secrets for himself, Nova and her friends must decode centuries of myth, magic, science, and history before the sky's greatest secret - a real hidden observatory - is lost forever.
Packed with real astronomy facts, ancient Egyptian mystery, space adventure, time-hopping history, puzzle-solving, friendship, and starlight wonder, The Star Chart Society is perfect for young readers who love mystery adventure books, science fiction for kids, history mysteries, stargazing, space facts, and codebreaking capers - think National Treasure meets The Mysterious Benedict Society, under a sky full of secrets.
