Title details for The Rise and Fall of El Solo Libre by Peter Nelson - Wait list

The Rise and Fall of El Solo Libre

ebook

For fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate comes the sequel to Peter Nelson and Rohitash Rao's Herbert's Wormhole, the breakout novel-in-cartoons that J. K. Rowling called "absolutely wonderful—fast-paced, inventive, engaging, and hilarious."

Herbert, Alex, and Sammi are heroes in the year 2109, having successfully saved the planet from an alien invasion (or so everyone thinks). Everything is going just swimmingly until, inevitably, real aliens appear—the evil, destruction-obsessed Klapthorians. The crew is going to come clean, but then they meet a crazy old man—who turns out to be Alex, age 109—with a plan for saving the world all over again. Can they do it and still make it back home by curfew?

The sequel to Herbert's Wormhole is chock-full of the same humor, imagination, and irresistible artwork as the first title. There are hijinks aplenty, not to mention skateboard stunts, time travel, and a whole lot of fake moustache shenanigans. Fans, old and new alike, will not be disappointed.


  • Time Travel Adventure: The wormhole is open again, but this time a visitor from the future—a 109-year-old version of Alex!—arrives with a wild plan to save the world.
  • Fake Heroes, Real Aliens: Herbert, Alex, and Sammi are superstars for stopping a fake alien invasion. But when the truly evil Klapthorians show up, their lie is about to get very, very real.
  • Middle Grade Humor: Featuring a secret plan to become the masked hero "El Solo Libre," fake moustache shenanigans, and the impossible task of saving the planet before curfew.
  • Heavily Illustrated Novel: Packed with hilarious cartoons and comic-style art on nearly every page, perfect for reluctant readers and fans of hybrid novels.
