About this item

"Last Day on Mars is thrillingly ambitious and imaginative. Like a lovechild of Gravity and The Martian, it's a rousing space opera for any age, meticulously researched and relentlessly paced, that balances action, science, humor, and most importantly, two compelling main characters in Liam and Phoebe. A fantastic start to an epic new series." - Soman Chainani, New York Times bestselling author of the School for Good and Evil series"Emerson's writing explodes off the page in this irresistible space adventure, filled with startling plot twists, diabolical aliens, and (my favorite!) courageous young heroes faced with an impossible task." - Lisa McMann, New York Times bestselling author of the Unwanteds seriesIt is Earth year 2213 - but, of course, there is no Earth anymore.



About the Author

Kevin Emerson

About

Kevin Emerson once competed in a beauty pageant and lost (probably because he was wearing a suit of armor) . He is the author of the EXILE series, the ATLANTEANS series, THE FELLOWSHIP FOR ALIEN DETECTION, the OLIVER NOCTURNE series and CARLOS IS GONNA GET IT. He is also a musician. His current projects are the EXILE SOUNDTRACK (songs from the EXILE book series) , NORTHERN ALLIES (his new band) , and THE BOARD OF EDUCATION (music for kids and kids-at-heart) .

Kevin grew up in Cheshire, CT, where he wrote stories all the time, played in the marching and jazz bands, and ran track. One time, he won a spelling bee, prevailing over his ex-girlfriend in the final round. The word that launched him to victory was 'vague.' Kevin now lives in Seattle with his wife and two children. A former science teacher, he can often be found teaching writing workshops to middle and high school students. Also, Kevin knows that bow ties are cool, that Pinkie Pie is the best MLP, and that Han shot first.
