Apparently, Earth Is for Sale

Six teenagers. One planet. Absolutely no permission to sell it.

Felix Fletcher was having a perfectly ordinary Tuesday in Maple Creek, Minnesota, until his best friend’s computer picked up an extraterrestrial transmission.

Apparently, Earth is listed for sale.

And apparently, nobody thought to ask the eight billion people living on it.

An ancient planetary registration has expired, the Interstellar Property Exchange has opened Earth for acquisition review, and an auction preview is approaching fast.

Unfortunately, the universe has rules.

Lots of rules.

And most of them involve paperwork.

Now Felix and his five best friends must figure out how to challenge an intergalactic real estate transaction before somebody acquires their homeworld.

There’s Kai, the programming genius who discovered the transmission. Milo, the inventor who believes almost anything can be fixed with enough spare parts. Piper, who actually reads the terms and conditions. Luna, who knows how to negotiate with just about anyone. And Jasper, whose enthusiasm occasionally creates more problems than it solves.

Together, they’ll face alien representatives, ancient registration records, confusing legal procedures, and the terrifying possibility that Earth’s future depends on submitting the correct form.

On time.

To the correct department.

Saving the world is complicated. Especially when the universe has a customer service department.

Apparently, Earth Is for Sale is the first book in Earth Was Not Consulted, a humorous young adult science fiction adventure series filled with friendship, clever problem-solving, extraterrestrial bureaucracy, and six ordinary teenagers facing one extraordinarily ridiculous problem.

Because Earth is home. And nobody asked whether it was for sale.
