Description

Two years ago, Bentley Carmones dad invented a deadly video game. Now, Bentley must team up with the hero of that game to fend off a new threat.

Thisis the firstbook in the Adventures in a Video Game series, a new series by bestselling author, Dustin Brady, where each book contains its own adventure in a different type of thrilling video game.

Bentley Carmones twelfth birthday party has beenwithout questionhis worst. For one thing, no one wanted to come. That wouldnt be so bad if those that did come had a good time, but everyone seems to be bored stiff. Finally, (and arguably most importantly), the entire party has just been captured by video game aliens.

Now, Bentley must team up with Polly, a gas station girl mascot turned video game hero, to hunt down the aliens. Armed with a blaster and laser sword, Polly would be the perfect partner for this job if she could ever stop invading mini-golf courses and blowing up semi-trucks. Over time, Bentley learns that Polly may not only hold the key to saving his friends, but also solving a mystery that has haunted the Carmone family for years. Can Bentley get through to her before its too late
