Eighteen year-old Star Wars-obsessed aspiring comic book artist Josh McCreary has a problem: despite being accepted to the prestigious Indianapolis Art Institute, he needs almost twenty thousand dollars to pay for his tuition, and he needs it quick.
But then his friend Dustin finds something that could change his fortune: at an estate sale a thousand miles away is the rarest of all Star Wars collectibles: a one-of-a-kind action figure that they could resell for six figures. All they have to do is drive to Texas to buy it before the greedy local comic shop owner Jeff Reynolds gets to it first.
Together with their three best friends, they embark on a roadtrip that could change their lives—and for Josh, a chance at letting go of the past.
For fans of John Green, this YA coming-of-age tale set to the sounds of that galaxy far, far away is perfect for anyone who has ever wanted to believe in the miracle of friendship and the Force.
Genre: Young Adult Fiction
