“Margot and Mateo Save the World is a nonstop, action-packed race to halt an alien invasion, like Robert Rodriguez’s The Faculty, but for middle schoolers. Fast paced, out-of-this-world fun!” — John Kloepfer, author of The Zombie Chasers series and the Galaxy’s Most Wanted trilogy
“[An] offbeat and highly enjoyable read...likely to entice even reluctant readers.” — School Library Journal
“The end of the world has rarely been quite this much fun....[S]ure to appeal to both avid and reluctant readers. A most enjoyable apocalypse.” — Kirkus Reviews
“The genuine rapport the two middle-schoolers develop along the way gives this story a surprising amount of heart...The book’s wacky humor and explosive action will appeal to fans of quirky science fiction, and even non-SF readers will appreciate the charming young heroes.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
“A suspenseful, thoroughly entertaining comedy...delectable.” — Booklist (starred review)
