Yes, I was the editor of this book and perhaps biased, but I truly love this book and hope you love it as much as I do! Both Armada and Ready Player Two have been optioned for film adaptations ( in Armada's case, three years before it was even published). Bridge to Bat City is the type of book I loved to read as a child; it’s a book about being an outsider—a weirdo, even!
