From award-winning middle-grade author Christopher Bodmann comes an electrifying underdog story about teamwork, resilience, and discovering what it really means to win.
When the odds are stacked against you, what would you do to win the game?
In the futuristic city of Neon Heights, down-on-his-luck fourteen-year-old Alex Thorne is chasing one thing: proving he belongs. A gifted aetherballer in a high-stakes, zero-gravity sport, Alex sees the elite Stellar Hawks as his shot at something bigger. But when one selfish mistake shatters his chance, he's left questioning if he was ever good enough to begin with.
With guidance from a former pro who sees his potential, Alex chooses a different path-building an underdog team from players no one else would pick. The Skybreakers are raw, unpredictable, and far from perfect. As pressure mounts and the competition heats up, Alex must learn what the game has been trying to teach him all along: one missed goal doesn't cost the game, and one lost game doesn't end a season-but playing only for yourself just might.
In a fast-paced, futuristic sports arena where gravity can shift without warning, the real challenge isn't landing the perfect shot-it's learning how to rise together as a team.
Will Alex keep chasing the spotlight...or become the leader his team needs before the final buzzer?
Perfect for fans of middle grade sports stories, science fiction adventures, and underdog team tales, Skybreaker is an action-packed chapter book about teamwork, perseverance, and discovering what it really means to win.
