Luke is nine years old, and life in South Africa is... well, awesome. He’s got his friends, his dogs, his family braais, and an upcoming blockbuster comic comicbook series. But when his parents drop the bombshell—they’re moving to New Zealand forever—his world starts to fall apart. With just one week left before the plane takes off, Luke launches Operation: Speedrun, a chaotic, emotional, and hilarious mission to do everything one last time: one last birthday bash, one last Lego rocket launcher, and one last failed attempt at making the monkey bars. As the countdown ticks and reality sets in, Luke must face a truth no Minecraft tutorial ever prepared him for—growing up means leaving things behind... but also discovering new quests ahead. Filled with heart and humor, Awesome is the first chapter in a coming-of-age saga about friendship, change, and the weird in-between space where childhood meets real life.
