In the vein of "Something Wicked This Way Comes," Ray Bradbury's brilliant 1962 fantasy novel, comes "Uncle Zwizzler's Circus Galaxica: The Greatest Show in the Galaxy" from celebrated author, GC Rosenquist. Twelve-year-old Speck escapes from his abusive father and Montvale, the human colony planet he lives on in the M80 galaxy, by stowing away aboard the famed Circus Galaxica, a space-traveling circus of specially talented aliens, to try to find his mother who'd abandon him a year ago. What Speck finds instead are some dark truths about life and growing up - but he also finds solace, love and security with his new family of aliens, discovering the true meaning of tolerance while learning about their many diverse cultures. Uncle Zwizzler's Circus Galaxica: The Greatest Show in the Galaxy is a poignant, sometimes humorous, often times metaphorical, fast-paced coming-of-age story set among the stars of the M80 Galaxy.
