Description

Readers of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate will love Herbert's Wormhole 3: Aerostar and the 3 1/2-Point Plan of Vengeance, the thrilling and irreverent conclusion to the series that began with Herbert's Wormhole, which J. K. Rowling called "absolutely wonderful—fast-paced, inventive, engaging, and hilarious."

Herbert, Alex, and Sammi were pretty sure their adventures in the future were over—until they discover that their old nemesis, GOR-DON, has come back to present-day Merwinsville to mess with things. And he's not alone. He is working for an evil genius, perhaps the greatest villain our heroes have yet faced—Sammi's future self, a.k.a. Aerostar, a power-mad, vengeance-fueled tyrant with twisted delusions of superheroism. This 111-year-old was the president of ClemCorp, the company responsible for trashing the Earth, the company the G'Daliens destroyed to save it, and now she wants revenge. And it's going to be up to our heroes to once again don the mantle of the AlienSlayers and somehow try to save the past, present, and future from total annihilation.


Can three kids stop a villain who knows their every move—because she used to be one of them?


  • Time Travel Adventure: When their old nemesis GOR-DON shows up in the present, Herbert, Alex, and Sammi discover the wormhole they thought was closed is back in business.
  • An Evil Future Self: The real villain isn’t GOR-DON. It’s Aerostar, Sammi’s own power-mad, 111-year-old future self who’s out for some serious revenge.
  • Friendship to the Test: The AlienSlayers are back, but saving the past, present, and future is going to challenge their friendship like never before.
  • Hilarious Action-Packed Fun: Perfect for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate, this series conclusion is loaded with the fast-paced, inventive, and laugh-out-loud humor that J.K. Rowling called "absolutely wonderful."

About the author(s)

Peter Nelson is a screenwriter who lives in Los Angeles, California, with his wife, Diane, and their two sons, Charlie and Christopher. Herbert's Wormhole was Peter's First children's book. He wrote it without ever having met an actual alien or traveling through time, which made it a bit more challenging, but just as fun.

Rohitash Rao was born in an exotic, faraway land called Hyderabad, India. He then grew up in another exotic, faraway land called Rancho Cucamonga, California. He now lives in a magical city on an island called Manhattan, where he works as an animator and director. Herbert's Wormhole was Rao's First children's book, much of which he illustrated while sitting on a broken stool in his apartment.
