I am a Teenage Alien — meet the characters
Book One
I Am a Teenage Alien
Zeeter looks ordinary. He's not.
He's an alien with a secret ship, a group of the best friends any guy could have, racing against time to snag the Cobalt Crystal before the villains can.
School? Boring.
Zooming across planets with pink oceans, dodging killer Dakks, cracking ancient codes? Epic.
Then Cynthia shows up and his double life is about to explode.
The crystal chose HIM.
Everyone's hunting it.
One wrong move and the universe — and his secret — are toast.
Can a teenage alien save everything... and still get home for dinner?
Book 1. Adventure starts NOW.
Book Two
I Am a Teenage Alien: Book 2
Zeeter found the Cobalt Crystal. Now he can't open it.
The crystal is sealed inside a stone, locked there long ago by warrior nuns and bound with the transparent blood of a Dakk — and only Dakk blood can set it free.
Guard it at home? Boring.
Blasting off in the Hunkajunk to question a mountain monk on Europa, feasting above the hover cars of Navarre, and hunting a creature almost nobody has ever caught? Epic.
But the hunt leaves Zippo fighting a deadly infection — and the only cure is a rare flower on faraway Tarton.
Meanwhile, Cynthia takes the captain's chair and learns to fly the Hunkajunk.
And the mysterious Binshins chose Zeeter once. Finding them again is another story.
One stone. One vial of Dakk blood. One friend running out of time.
Can a teenage alien open the unopenable, save his best friend... and decide who in the universe he can trust with what's inside?
Book 2. The adventure continues.
Book Three
I Am a Teenage Alien: Book 3
The crystal is open. Now comes the hard part: figuring out what it DOES and how it works!
By the clues, it has three powers — freeze time, travel through it, and speed it up. But nobody knows how to make any of them work. The directions are in the third lore book... and that book is missing.
Celebrate first? Totally.
A surprise birthday trip to Tarton. Dinner underwater, surrounded by fish that communicate! Then front-row seats at a special movie theater for the most famous act Grinslow could find on Tarton: a herd of talking, dancing dwarf unicorns, starring the one and only Turd Ferguson.
But Turd's people are being captured and sold into slavery by the Ronaloids — and rescuing 51 unicorns means hiding them where no slaver would ever think to look: a secret dimension with a purple beach.
Meanwhile, back home, heartbreak crashes into Cynthia's world — and the gang does what it always does. It closes ranks.
One crystal nobody fully understands.
One missing book of directions.
Can a group of wayward teenagers learn the rules of time itself... before the Ronaloids find them?
Book 3. Time itself is in their hands.
