Alex Wise vs. the Cosmic Shift
Alex Wise vs. the Cosmic Shift
Alex and his friends continue their quest to prevent the apocalypse, but with everyone looking to him for answers, Alex is not sure he is cut out to be a superhero.
No one ever said saving the world would be easy. In the second instalment of this thrilling fantasy series all about finding your inner hero, a 12-year-old boy leads the charge against the Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
Alex Wise vs. the Cosmic Shift follows Alex Wise, who is no superhero. Or at least, he doesn't feel like one. Sure, he vanquished Death and saved his sister Magsβwith the help of some new magic powers, his best friend Loren, and demi-god Liam. But the apocalypse shows no signs of slowing down. Now, Alex and his friends will have to find new allies and face new dangersβfrom battling a giant snake in a literal ghost town to infiltrating the Horsemen's new home base on the Vegas Strip...on the back of a dragon.
With everyone looking to him for answers, Alex isn't sure he's cut out for this world-saving thing. And the closer he gets to Liam, the farther away he feels from Loren and from Mags, who hasn't been the same since she was possessed by Death. How can Alex lead a team if he doesn't even feel like he deserves to be a part of it?
"Never has the apocalypse been so fun!"
-Mark Oshiro, author of The Insiders and co-author with Rick Riordan of The Sun and the Star: A Nico di Angelo Adventure.
