Teen Think Tank: Sci-Fi

Welcome to week seven of Summer Reading. Have you gotten your summer reading bookmark? There is still time to check some books off your summer reading list and win some prizes along the way!

This week, we're leaving Earth and exploring all things Sci-Fi. In this genre, anything is possible! Authors can create imaginary worlds or use our own solar system as a setting, characters can be humans or aliens from other galaxies, and these characters can use existing technologies or invent something completely out of reach for 21st century Earth. Check out a Sci-Fi title and take the opportunity to go where no one has gone before!

Nax and a handful of other space Academy washouts are the only surviving pilots after their school is hijacked, but in order to spread the truth about the attack, Nax and his fellow failures must execute a dangerous heist using the same skills that got them kicked out in the first place.
