Review:

FOR INTERSTELLAR PIG
'A riveting adventure . . . Terrifyingly vivid, coupled with a high-flying sense of humour.'

(NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW)

Will raise readers' hackles and incite nervous laughs . . . a taut tale. (PUBLISHERS WEEKLY)

Sleator's science fiction story is compelling on first reading - but stellar on the second ... raises enough questions to keep readers thinking - and wondering - well past the last page. (SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL)

From creepy to hilarious to murkily outlandish: a freewheeling science fiction nightmare/comedy from the inventive William Sleator ... Steady, challenging amusement for savvy readers. (KIRKUS REVIEWS)

Book Description:

A sci-fi thriller from a master of the genre, about a board game that becomes an obsession - and becomes a battle for his life against alien life-forms with incredible powers.
