Hunt for the Pyxis — Zoe Ferraris

On the night Emma Garton's supposedly boring parents are kidnapped, she is forced to face the truth that they've been lying to her about many things. The most important of which? They aren't even from planet Earth.

To find her mom and dad, Emma and her best friend, Herbie, must leave Earth and enter the Strands -- the waterways of space, where huge galleons ply the intergalactic seas. But a journey through the constellations won't be easy -- not with every scoundrel in the galaxy determined to find them.

In this interstellar adventure, YALSA Alex Award-winning author Zoë Ferraris transports readers to a vast magical universe filled with fantastical creatures, merciless villains, and fearless heroes.
