Without the two of them, the ancient alien society would never have existed. Steven returns in the middle of a simmering war between the alien society that barely tolerated him, and an evil goddess that was utterly infatuated with him. His return becomes the spark that lights the fires of open conflict, with Earth stuck in the middle. With the explosion of war coming from every direction, Steven Crow struggles to keep those he loves safe, and races against time to solve the problem the evil goddess has become, even entering her lair to face her head on. Yet how can one defeat a timeless entity who predates the universe, one who knows what his true, devastating nature is, one who knows how precariously reality is teetering on the edge of oblivion?

The Book of Perfectly Perilous Math

Publisher: Hachette+ORM
ISBN: 1523502371
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Math rocks! At least it does in the gifted hands of Sean Connolly, who blends middle school math with fantasy to create an exciting adventure in problem-solving. These word problems are perilous, do-or-die scenarios of blood-sucking vampires (How many months would it take a single vampire to completely take over a town of 500,000 people?), or a rowboat of 5 shipwrecked sailors with a single barrel of freshwater (How much can they drink, and for how long, before they go mad from thirst???). Each problem requires readers to dig deep into the tools they’re learning in school to figure out how to survive. Kids will love solving these problems. Sean Connolly knows how to make tough subjects exciting and he brings that same intuitive understanding of what inspires and challenges kids’ curiosity to the 24 problems in The Book of Perfectly Perilous Math. These problems are as fun to read as they are challenging to solve. They test readers on fractions, algebra, geometry, probability, expressions and equations, and more. Use geometry to fill in for the ship’s navigator and make it safely to the New World. Escape an evil Duke’s executioner by picking the right door—probability will save your neck.
