Have you ever been bullied? Have you ever closed your eyes and dreamt of a better place? Have you ever wanted to make a real difference in the world?Allow me to introduce you to Max Miles, a lanky fifth grader who is a victim of childhood bullying. Max is always wishing to be someone else, a "somebody," and constantly dreaming of a better place to be.

This is the first book in a series where Max travels through unconventional galactic obstacle courses and attempts incredible missions. He begins his journey aboard a pirate ship that once sailed in the 1800s.

Bewildered as to how he arrived at such a place, Max with his inquisitive nature makes this a perfect fit. He encounters magical and mystical beings along the way, all the while surprising himself with his newfound confidence.

These missions and adventures test this mild-mannered fifth grader's strength and courage, transforming Max into the "somebody" he always wished he could be. He never dreamt that that he could be the chosen one, the successor of something unimaginable.
