Description
"Helios High" is a timeless coming of age story that proves love and friendship can overcome any obstacles, even ones of galactic proportions. In this ambitious work of science fiction, The Breakfast Club meets Scooby Doo as a group of misfits save the galaxy while serving time in detention. When Hadley Hambrick first shows up on campus, her appearance causes quite a stir. After all, she's the first earthling ever admitted to Helios High, a magnet school located in a remote sector of the galaxy. Not everyone agrees with the idea, including the enigmatic school principal. Remanded to detention, she meets a group of students unlike any she's encountered before. There's the hulking reptilian with an eating disorder, a cybernetic jock with buyer's remorse, the mind probing honor student, and an exotic girl with a mysterious past. These five misfits will need to set aside their differences if they have any chance of saving the galaxy...or at least earning extra credit.
