Published
United States, 1 July 2021

Age range 9+

Can an anxious eleven-year-old find her chill and save her family from creepy aliens? Only if she's the most awesome, super-brave astronaut since Spaceman Spiff! So take a deep breath, grab your sidekick, and blast off with Jillian to Parasite Planet.

Eleven-year-old Jillian hates surprises. Even fun ones make her feel all panicky inside. But, she's always dreamed of joining her space-explorer parents on a mission. It's Take Your Kid to Work Day, and Jillian finally has her chance to visit an alien world!

The journey to Planet 80 UMa c is supposed to be just a fun camping trip. But then the local wildlife starts acting really dangerous. Only the onboard computer SABRINA sorta knows what's happening-at least when it's not goofing off or telling bad jokes.

Looks like it's Jillian vs Parasite Planet-and Jillian is determined to win!

About the Author

Nicole Kornher-Stace is the author of the Norton Award finalist, Archivist Wasp, and its sequel, Latchkey, which are about a postapocalyptic ghosthunter, the ghost of a near-future supersoldier, and their adventures in the underworld. She has two more books due out in 2021: the sci-fi thriller, Firebreak, and of course, Jillian Vs. Parasite Planet. You can find Nicole on Twitter, where she is probably semicoherently yelling about board games, video games, hiking, aromantic representation, good books she's read recently, or her cat. She lives in New Paltz, New York with her family.
