Publisher Description

A great new stand-alone science fiction novel from Carrie Vaughn, author of the Kitty Norville series.

Well-known for her bestselling series Kitty Norville, Carrie Vaughn moves to science fiction with Martians Abroad. Polly Newton has one single-minded dream, to be a starship pilot and travel the galaxy. Her mother, the Director of the Mars Colony, derails Polly's plans when she sends Polly and her genius twin brother, Charles, to Galileo Academy on Earth.

Homesick and cut off from her plans for her future, Polly cannot seem to fit into life on Earth. Strange, unexplained, dangerous coincidences centered on their high-profile classmates begin piling up. Charles may be right—there's more going on than would appear, and the stakes are high. With the help of Charles, Polly is determined to find the truth, no matter the cost.

Lessons Learned

This book was super fun to read, and I really enjoyed the way Vaughn allows the reader to experience settings like a Mars colony and Earth (several generations after humans had begun to also live in space.) This book spoke to our need to believe in our future, to hope, to make a difference. These children met the challenges they were given using lessons learned from their cultures, their friendships and their own personal moral development. Although I am an adult, I think this book would be enjoyable for children and young adults too.
