Star Runner

Aliens don’t exist. Travelling around the galaxy using wormholes only happens in stories. They're facts. In all the years that humans have travelled in space, they've never happened.

Now the question is, can they ever get back home?

Alex, Pete and Nick Daniels have dealt with being sucked through a wormhole, meeting their first aliens and getting an abandoned spaceship working again. They’ve made friends and enemies alike. But now their real adventure begins. Haunted space stations, dangerous space phenomena and more aliens than they could ever imagine are only some of the obstacles that threaten their journey home.
