Publisher's Summary

A startling, wonderful novel about the true meaning of being an alien in an equally alien world.

"We are specks. Pieces of dust in this universe. Big nothings. I know what I am."

Mal lives on the fringes of high school. Angry. Misunderstood. Yet loving the world - or, at least, an idea of the world. Then he meets Hooper. Who says he's from another planet. And may be going home very soon.
