All Victoria wanted was to go back to sleep when her best friend Martha dragged her out of bed in the middle of the night to study a fallen star - a mysterious crystal with entire galaxies trapped inside. Now thanks to a freak accident she's stuck in an alien galaxy, wearing nothing but her pyjamas and borrowed shoes, hunted by the monstrous General Dranslen, and even all of Martha's genius seems to have no hope of getting them home alive...

The Stickerbush Boys - Adventures in Willow Wood, follows two brothers, Danny and Kip Stevens, and their two good friends - Arnie and Gus, as they dodge the boredom of a sheltered and suburban life. Exploring the rural edge of their neighborhood, Willow Wood - just outside Tillamook Falls, and bored with elementary school life, The Stickerbush Boys learn the value of friendship, imagination, and discover the lure of real adventure, with quest after quest throughout Willow Wood and its surrounding countryside. Volume One: The Farmer's Dirge, recalls the story of Danny's daring plan to seek adventure in a brave new way, and the suspense-filled moments at Ol' Farmer Ben's place. Danger is never far out of reach, as the boys must devise a plan to escape certain peril, battle their own demons, rely on each other, and ultimately - return home to Willow Wood in one piece. For Danny, Kip, Arnie, and Gus, adventure reveals it's face around every street corner, deep inside every cornfield, high up each mulberry tree, and eventually within themselves. Flying contraptions, evil cyborgs, muddy creek beds, and many more exciting moments await!
