Book 2. Travis Fletcher was an arrogant, brash, chauvinistic product of 1980's Britain. After being critically injured in a train crash that killed his family he is rescued by the enigmatic Xi Scorpii. A rare gene he carried was needed to reverse their genetic sterility but ancient enemies of the Xi Scorpii returned to throw them back into a war that ended thousands of years ago. After the battle for Otoch, Travis finds himself alone on the ship that was supposed to take him back to Earth. Travis has to come to terms with his solitude and grapple with technology beyond his understanding just to stay sane, never mind to stay alive. Travis makes a promise to a distant relation to the Xi Scorpii that means they will have to turn their new home into a fully functioning warship, find a crew of warriors and learn to be warriors themselves. New alliances are forged, new enemies are made and the dangerous and unpredictable Cat has her own voyage of discovery to make - into her past.

Book Description
”Fans of Beverly Cleary’s Quimbys, Judy Blume’s Hatchers, and, more recently, Jeanne Birdsall’s Penderwicks will fervently hope that more Fletcher misadventures are yet to come.” —School Library Journal, Starred The start of the school year is not going as the Fletcher brothers hoped. Each boy finds his plans for success veering off in unexpected and sometimes diastrous directions. And at home, their miserable new neighbor complains about everything. As the year continues, the boys learn the hard and often hilarious lesson that sometimes what you least expect is what you come to care about the most. Praise for The Misadventures of the Family Fletcher A Junior Library Guild Selection [set star] ”Their banter is realistic, and the disorder of their everyday lives, convincing. The Fletcher family rules!” —Kirkus Reviews, Starred ”Dana Alison Levy has gloriously reimagined the classic family story into a thoroughly modern mold, and it works perfectly.” —Bruce Coville, bestselling author of My Teacher Is an Alien and the Unicorn Chronicles [P1] [set star] ”With its semi-episodic structure, laugh-out-loud humor, and mix of zaniness and love, Levy’s debut offers something truly significant: a middle-grade family story featuring gay parents and interracial families that is never about either issue.” —School Library Journal, Starred ”Levy provides a compelling, compassionate, and frequently hilarious look at their daily concerns. By book’s end readers will want to be part of (or at least friends with) this delightful family.” —The Horn Book
