The Twin Powers
Author(s): Robert Lipsyte
“A multi-world adventure starring a band of heroes that readers will want to join.” —Kirkus Reviews, of The Twinning Project
In this stand-alone sequel to The Twinning Project, thirteen-year-old twins Tom and Eddie, aware that their homes are at risk, have been waiting for a chance to save their planets. The sudden appearance of an alien both in Tom’s school lunchroom and on Eddie’s baseball field tells them that now is the time. The stakes are high, and sinister U.S. government agents want their piece of the pie. Can Tom and Eddie persuade the alien council to preserve their worlds, or will both troubled planets just go up in smoke? Middle grade space adventure? Check. Aliens who quote Mark Twain? Check. Suspense? Check. Blast off!
Review(s):
"An agreeably quick-paced time travel romp." —Kirkus "Chock-full of action and suspense, this series will get readers thinking about important social and environmental issues." —School Library Journal "Fast-paced action and high octane suspense should definitely appeal to reluctant as well as not-so-reluctant teen readers, both boys and girls." —VOYA
