About this book

Marlon Moore is an eighth grader in the small city of Walden Lane, and he loves video games, as does his best friend Steve McCain. Marlon bets that he can outscore Steve at Clan Castles, and the winner picks something from the local convenience store.

Steve sets one rule: nobody may use a boost, a move that helps a player escape a tough spot. Marlon is sure of winning until he runs into difficulty, cheats with a banned boost and then denies it. Steve is furious, and Marlon may lose his best friend for good.

The series portrays an ordinary American household juggling full calendars and everyday troubles. The series looks at suburban life in an entertaining way and is written for younger readers, with gentle, hopeful stories. Each book runs to about 5,000 words over 10 chapters. Published by Saddleback Pub in 2017, with 64 pages and ISBN-13 9781680213676.
