Game Over, Pete Watson

This hysterically funny, fast-paced novel follows video game obsessed Pete Watson as he discovers the only thing scarier than espionage is the girl of his dreams. Pete's gaming skills are put to the test as he fights evil villains and a global cyberattack from within the CommandRoid. And tries to impress Callie Midwood with his skills, or whatever.


Publisher Marketing:"A progressively silly, retro-geeky action story for the YOLO generation." " Kirkus Reviews" Mega-gamer Pete Watson needs just twenty dollars more to buy the all-new Brawl-A-Thon 3000 XL. So he sells a beat-up CommandRoid 85 arcade game (containing top-secret government intel!) owned by his boring old dad (super-spy trapped inside the CommandRoid!), to an exterminator (evil mastermind bent on global destruction!!!). Pete s gaming skills are put to the test as he fights evil villains, giant mechanical bugs, and a global cyberattack from within the CommandRoid. And tries to impress Callie Midwood with his skills, or whatever." Review Citations:
