Produktbeschreibung

In this sequel to This Was Never About Basketball, a few months have passed since Zeke Archer saved basketball from extinction after the 7th Dimension--the otherworldly entity that brought the game to Earth in 1891 -- tried to take it away for good. Now Zeke is settling into life after high school, leading his team and running the point at Jefferson Community College. And there, on his home court, is where this strange tale begins ...

Tragedy strikes close to Zeke's heart, and his world slowly begins to crumble around him. But when he receives a mysterious message that could only have originated from another realm, Zeke begins a journey like no other. Flanked by his trusted friend Lawrence -- a math whiz who might have just discovered a top-secret inter-dimensional portal -- Zeke crosses paths with a drop-kicking rugby aficionado, a sage and telepathic sea creature, and the possible inventor of basketball, all in the quest to find the true meaning of love, loss, and friendship, on and off the court.

Autorenporträt

Despite being relatively earthbound most of the time, Craig Leener has long maintained a keen interest in space travel. He's also a big fan of basketball, having immersed himself in the game since his youth as a player, coach, referee, fan and, later in life, as a sportswriter.Craig has an above-average ability to go to his left and maintains a solid perimeter jumper. His free-throw percentage on his backyard home court is an implausible 87 percent - and to this day, that number remains 100-percent officially unverified. And what the author lacks in foot speed, leaping ability, and defense, he makes up for in court smarts and postgame snacks.Craig is a lifelong opponent of the instant replay in sports. He maintains this contrarian point of view because of the intrinsic value he places on the human element's potential to influence the outcome of athletic competition, inadvertently or otherwise.Craig holds degrees from Los Angeles Valley College and California State University, Northridge. He sits on the board of directors of CSUN's Journalism Alumni Association and serves as the organization's director of scholarships. Although Craig possesses an innate curiosity about what might reside beyond the heavens, he lives in the suburbs of Los Angeles with his truly otherworldly wife, Andrea.There's No Basketball on Mars is his fourth young-adult novel, following the publication of the Zeke Archer Basketball Trilogy. The author and his publishing company, Green Buffalo Press, will donate a portion of proceeds from the sale of this book to Exceptional Minds, an academy and studio that prepares young adults on the autism spectrum for careers in animation, visual effects, 3D gaming, and other related fields in the entertainment industry. The organization is headquartered in Los Angeles.
