Ignatius MacFarland: Frequenaut!

By Paul Feig
Ignatius MacFarland: Frequenaut! by Paul Feig digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

After being teased one too many times at school, Ignatius MacFarland decides to build a rocket. Maybe extraterrestrials are nicer than his classmates! But when his rocket takes an explosive wrong turn, Ignatius ends up in another frequency run by former English-teacher-turned-dictator, Chester Arthur. Mr. Arthur has taken the art, culture, and advancements of our world, shared them with this new frequency, and convinced the creatures around him that he's a genius. It's up to Iggy and Karen, another trapped earthling, to expose Mr. Arthur for the fraud that he is-and to hopefully make it home alive.

Part comedy, part science fiction, and part fantasy, this debut novel, with line art by talented newcomer Peter Chan, makes being a geek, well, kind of cool.

“A funny and very imaginative book, though the writing itself was nothing special. Ignatius Macfarland, called Iggy (and what a fabulous name), is an engaging character that middle reader boys will love, and Karen, the kick ass high schooler who enlists him in her crusade, will appeal to girls of the same age. Not one of my favorites, but kids will love it.”
