About this listen
When Max’s life-craft is pulled into a wormhole, he needs a whole galaxy of luck to return to safety … Chris Bradford crafts Interstellar for kids in this space-bending survival story.
Max Nova is headed to Mercury with his father, a space trucker, when their ship is suddenly diverted. They have a new urgent mission. An abnormal gravity reading has been detected near the sun.
There are fears that this could signal the start of a supernova! But what Max and his father discover is much more dangerous – and far stranger – than any supernova.
Flung to the outer reaches of the universe, Max must navigate a galaxy of dangers to find his way home before time runs out!
Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 7.

Critic Reviews
"A supernova of action, adventure and imagination!” – Dan Smith
"Star-struck young readers will be over the moon when they get their hands on the final book of a heart-thumping, outer-space trilogy … Bradford, creator of the hugely popular Young Samurai and Bodyguard series, is a master of authentic and thrilling adventures and Nova delivers not just his familiar nail-biting action drama but a standalone story threaded through with fascinating facts about space travel … this final space-bending survival thriller is a mission you won’t want to miss!" – Lancashire Post
"This compelling blend of sci-fi, survival and fast-moving adventure is perfect for 9+ year olds with a reading age of 7." — School Reading List
"Chris Bradford is a master of the high-stakes, high-action hook, and he doesn’t disappoint here. Pitched as Interstellar for kids, Nova takes complex space-bending concepts and makes them incredibly accessible and utterly compelling. The pacing is electric. From the moment the readings go haywire and Control change the orders for the crew of the Helios, the tension never lets up … It’s a classic survival story with a futuristic twist that keeps you turning the pages … A gripping, cinematic sci-fi adventure perfect for anyone who has ever looked at the night sky and wondered, “What if?”" — Mrs Cleveland is Reading, blogger
"Another wonderful short read from author Chris Bradford that is perfect not just for budding space travellers but for anyone who enjoys a story packed full of excitement and danger." — Mrs Sydney's Famous World's Smallest Library, blog
"An exciting thriller for younger readers! This race against time adventure had us gripped! Fast-paced and full of adventure and action … Ideal for readers aged 9 and over, perfect for kids who like sci-fi and space." – mum_of_boys_northeast, blogger
