How amazing would it be to have a dad who’s an astronaut?
Rocket launches, zero gravity, and flying through space like a superhero! Jamie Drake’s dad is orbiting the Earth in the International Space Station and Jamie ought to think it’s cool but he just really misses him…
Hanging out at his local observatory, Jamie picks up a strange signal on his phone. It looks like alien life is getting closer to home. But space is a dangerous place and when his dad’s mission goes wrong, can Jamie prove that he’s a hero too?
A cosmic adventure for anyone who’s ever looked at the stars, from the author of The Many Worlds of Albie Bright.

It was decent. The language and style were absolutely amazing. Yet, I think it could have done with more PHYSICAL adventure, instead of just thoughts and speech. They didn't really go anywhere

I liked the suspense that build up over the story. The messages he gets from the alien species really made it exciting to see what happened next.

wow, what a book! It has anything a bookworm could ask for! Aliens, travelling at the speed of light, weird messages from outer space in this thrilling novel. It would be crazy not to recommend to anyone else!

This was a book i got from the library as i had nothing else to read. I thought it was a really good except the ending. It was quick and unrealistic and I just think that ruins it as the rest was about space and it told me real facts. Well if your interested in seeing if there’s any intelligent life in the universe then I would recommend this book!
