Publisher Description: BE PREPARED, BECAUSE YOU JUST NEVER KNOW... Forced to join a gang to gain the attention of parents who could care less, 15-year-old Brava Hernandez fended for herself in the heart of East Los Angeles, 2219. Drugs, robberies, gang violence ... nothing much had changed over the past two centuries. Her only escape was to watch the Sci & Psych Channel, which transported her imagination to galaxies far away. She learned yoga to control her inner pain, exercise to defend herself on the streets, and social interaction from the show hosts. The only person who ever helped her was her school counselor, who introduced Brava to Captain Wirkkala of the exploratory space ship Justice. He hired her as his assistant and she set off on a real space adventure Come aboard as Brava learns the ins and outs of her ship, the Oikeudenmukaisuus, the Finnish word for Justice, and meets new friends. However, facing a mutiny, a maniacal scientist, and hostile aliens, Brava's strength and determination will be tested... and that's only the beginning |
