What happens to Alice when she comes back from Wonderland? Wendy from Neverland? Dorothy from Oz? 


The three meet here, at Cheshire Crossing--a boarding school where girls like them learn how to cope with their supernatural experiences and harness their magical world-crossing powers.

But the trio--now teenagers, who've had their fill of meddling authority figures--aren't content to sit still in a classroom. Soon they're dashing from one universe to the next, leaving havoc in their wake--and, inadvertently, bringing the Wicked Witch and Hook together in a deadly supervillain love match.

To stop them, the girls will have to draw on all of their powers . . . and marshal a team of unlikely allies from across the magical multiverse.

Andy Weir

Long before The Martian made readers cheer for a stranded botanist on Mars, Andy Weir was already running calculations in his head—about orbital mechanics, life support systems, and how many potatoes it would take to survive in space. He’s not just a writer who tells science fiction stories; he’s the kind of mind who reverse-engineers the science until fiction becomes startlingly plausible. That’s what sets his work apart in the genre: the thrill doesn’t come from alien invasions or distant galaxies, but from watching a lone character engineer their way out of a seemingly impossible situation—with duct tape, sarcasm, and a lot of math.

Weir grew up in California, the son of a particle physicist and an engineer, which perhaps explains his love for both scientific accuracy and problem-solving narratives. Before his breakout as a novelist, he worked as a software engineer—a career that shaped his methodical storytelling and precision with technical detail. He famously self-published The Martian chapter by chapter on his website, responding to reader feedback and refining the science as he went. When it hit Kindle, the book took off like a rocket, eventually becoming a New York Times bestseller and an Academy Award-nominated film starring Matt Damon.

But success didn’t tempt Weir to drift into the abstract or grandiose. His follow-ups, Artemis and Project Hail Mary, kept his signature grounded tone—blending hard science with flawed, funny, and deeply human protagonists. Whether it's a smuggler on the Moon or a man waking up alone on a spaceship with only an alien for company, his characters face monumental stakes with ingenuity and heart. And always, there's the quiet hum of real-world physics beneath the plot.

Weir has said, “I’m not a brave person, I’m not a leader—I’m a dork who writes code and makes stuff up.” And maybe that’s why his stories resonate: they imagine a future shaped not by heroes in capes, but by ordinary people using logic, grit, and humor to solve extraordinary problems. In a genre often dominated by dystopia or fantasy, his work offers something rarer—a kind of hope rooted in science, curiosity, and the resilience of the human spirit.

Whether you're a lifelong sci-fi fan or just curious what it really takes to survive on another planet, Andy Weir’s books don’t just entertain—they make you think, laugh, and maybe even believe we’ll get there someday.
