  Oliver has a lot going on starting his first year of middle school: new friends, new classes, new everything. But at least there’s one thing that still makes sense: SCIENCE! Determined to be an astrophysicist one day, Oliver explains everything he learns—like how the sun burps, how ghost particles fly through you, and the uncanny similarities between Mercury and cafeteria meatballs. (Also, there are time-bending black holes, exploding supernova stars, and aliens! Well, there could be aliens.)Oliver finally feels like he’s starting to figure things out … but can he stay out of the principal’s office, or catch a break from his annoying sister? With laugh-outloud humor, Oliver’s Great Big Universe follows an eleven-year-old who’s taking on the whole universe—if he can survive middle school first.

  First Line-Of-Defense for Unprecedented XtremesMan's curiosity has led to great advances, but it has also brought on great peril. The tinkering of man has triggered an apocalyptic end that can't be stopped. By chance, or divine intervention, eight humans have been empowered by celestial orbs, giving them access to ancient power not meant for The Earthly Realm. Will this new power be enough to stop the onslaught of an alien enemy? "FLUX: Celestial Genesis" is the first in the FLUX Continuum series. Traversing through time, space, and new realities, The Twelve are the only hope to save All Of Creation. Man should have kept earth hidden; now that they know, the extinction can begin. An annihilation force known throughout the "Universe" as the Bahkrata are now aware of planet Earth. The desires of this civilization are to raid, pillage and enslave humans so their world can be replenished through the excavating of Earth's global resources. While unknown to those existing within the "Universe," an unfathomable all consuming threat is coming. The dimensional barriers have been breached and "Paradise" is no longer hidden. The lines between good and evil become blurred, as heroes rise to face the end of everything.#FLUX #IFluxWitIt www.flux-zodiac.com @flux_chaos facebook, instagram, twittereBook ISBN:   9781098314781Paperback ISBN:   9781098314774
