Overview

Everyone on the Starlight is in stasis—everyone except Lon. The boy has woken up, even though the spaceship's long voyage isn't complete. Stranger still, he finds odd tubes hooked into the sleeping crew, and they all look pale and sickly. And then Lon discovers the biggest problem: Mysterious creatures have come aboard, and they're hungry for blood. This illustrated SCREAMS IN SPACE tale will take young sci-fi fans to the outer reaches of the universe . . . and into their darkest fears.
