"With fantastic worldbuilding, a hero you can't help but root for, and the best sidekick this side of the galaxy, this engaging, inventive tale of survival will leave readers turning pages." --Katie Slivensky, author of The Countdown Conspiracy "A fast-paced story of survival--in the face of alien worms and your own anxieties--with a hero kids will relate to and a robot sidekick they'll wish they could take to school!" --Gareth Wronski, author of Holly Farb and the Princess of the Galaxy "Action, science, and creepy crawly creatures. This is everything I ever wanted in an all-ages space adventure." --Landry Walker, author of Star Wars Adventures " The Martian for kids--a fun yet surprisingly gritty story of resourcefulness and survival in the wilds of outer space." --Sophia McDougall, author of Mars Evacuees " Jillian vs Parasite Planet is a thrilling middle-grade sci-fi novel, with a plucky and ingenious hero who never gives up, and an A.I. partner we all wish we could have." --Samantha M Clark, author of The Boy, the Boat, and the Beast "I like a book that keeps the reader posted on what everybody has to eat. Also, I like a book with worms, (in the story, not in the physical book). Not many books have worms. This one does. It's a romp. It's a space romp. It's a romping story in which food is mentioned, and there are worms, and a neat kid who's realer than some kids you meet in books." --Daniel Pinkwater, author of Adventures of a Dwergish Girl "Look out Heinlein, here comes Nicole Kornher-Stace! In her middle grade novel, Jillian vs Parasite Planet, she not only does a Heinlein space explorer, but her young female hero, with hands full of science and parasites, manages to grow up as well. Huzzah! Great space fun with a lot of ick thrown in as well." --Jane Yolen, author of Owl Moon "Freaking delightful." -- Blogendorff Praise for Nicole Kornher-Stace "Nicole Kornher-Stace is a genius." --Tiffany Trent, author of The Unnaturalists "Fierce, blazing, brilliant." --Jacqueline West, New York Times-bestselling author of The Books of Elsewhere "Absorbing, exciting, intellectually fascinating, emotionally true." --Ideomancer "Astonishingly original." --Mike Allen, author of Unseaming "Richly textured, atmospheric prose." --Booklist "Mesmerizing from the first page." --Fantasy Book Critic, "With fantastic worldbuilding, a hero you can't help but root for, and the best sidekick this side of the galaxy, this engaging, inventive tale of survival will leave readers turning pages." --Katie Slivensky, author of The Countdown Conspiracy "Action, science, and creepy crawly creatures.
