Publisher's Synopsis
What do most fourteen year old boys have to worry about? Baseball tryouts? Girls? That Algebra final? And then there's Franklin Freeman, who's just been tasked with preventing the apocalypse by any means necessary. His only companions on this impossible mission? Try an amnesiac cyborg from the future, an insect obsessed nerd, a tomboy from down the block, and a malfunctioning time machine that could take them all to who knows what year. By no choice of his own, Franklin Freeman is sucked into the greatest and most bizarre adventure of a lifetime, one in which he'll travel across time and space from his little home in southern Connecticut, meet a dystopian tribe made up of the last humans on earth, do battle with a race of monsters living just under the planet's surface, and - most daunting of all - try not to make a total fool of himself in front of the girl he's been hopelessly crushing on all along! And he thought it was going to be a relaxing summer break...
