The Science Club Kids
Sixty-five million years ago, the dinosaurs died. Well, maybe they didn?t croak that instant, but sixty-five million years ago was definitely not a good year for the dinosaurs, who went into a bit of a prolonged decline thereafter.
On the other hand, sixty-five million B.C.?give or take a few millennia?was a darned good year for two groups of criminals about to be imprisoned in a null zone that connects two universes: instead of ending up in an inescapable hoosegow, they suddenly found themselves mapped into the higher dimensions of another universe?a more primitive universe?where they possessed god-like powers. Whatever history had in mind for this universe, it changed forever when the Titans and the Olympians arrived.Sixty-five million years later, eleven year old Gene Beck, a brainy kid who likes reading and eating Zagnut bars more than he likes exercise,
is gloomily anticipating his humiliation during Windbag Middle School?s annual fitness test. While contemplating a dark and vile fate, Gene is surprised when two small maple trees?who have been thinking thoughts of their own?introduce themselves as Zeus and Apollo, the ancient Greek gods.
They want Gene and the other members of the Windbag Science Club to join the Benevolent Order of Olympus (BOO) to help stop a catastrophe about to occur elsewhere in the Milky Way Galaxy. Zeus and Apollo convince Gene?who would rather do anything than take a fitness test?and his friends, Jamal
