In the series-starter, thirteen-year-old Kevin and his science camp friends defeat the alien outlaw Mim. Dorkness immediately follows the events, as Kevin's team of fellow campers (a.k.a. "the Extraordinary Terrestrials") now must prepare to battle Mim's friends who have come for revenge. The sci-fi nerd humor and accompanying black-and-white cartoon illustrations will entertain reluctant readers; both volumes end with a cliffhanger. Review includes these titles: Galaxy's Most Wanted and Galaxy's Most Wanted: Into the Dorkness.
