Stardate

"Mark, I'm telling you. She's an alien!"Mark Bricchetti is an ordinary, 21st century teenager. Excitement means playing MMOs, reading about dinosaurs, and munching pizza. That's about to change. It starts when best friend, Aaron Hooper, warns him about Keshikka Grant, the new hottie in school. "Mark, I'm telling you. She's an alien!"Well, she did have red-golden hair and yellow eyes. But when Keshikka whispers her phone number to him, Mark has no idea their date will take him to worlds he could not imagine, where the fate of planet Earth lands in his hands. Of course, he will encounter a vast array of aliens, starships, rampaging dinosaurs, and holographic MMOs where you can actually die. Stardate shanghaies readers from ordinary life and teleports them into a science fiction, action-driven, deep space adventure, punctuated with humor. For anyone who loves a good tale, middle school to retirement complex."If that girl is an alien, beam me aboard."
