Before he ever launched readers into deep space or spun tales of undercover agents, Myles Christensen was busy tinkering—sometimes with gadgets, sometimes with ideas. A product development engineer by trade and a storyteller by instinct, he brings a maker’s precision and curiosity to every book he writes, whether it’s a middle-grade sci-fi adventure or a cozy thriller steeped in espionage.

Christensen’s stories defy easy categorization. His science fiction work, like Frozen Secrets, explores far-off moons and looming conspiracies through the eyes of young protagonists, offering a thoughtful balance of wonder and suspense that resonates with younger readers and nostalgic adults alike. Then there's My Buddy Gave Me a Starship, a quirky, character-driven romp that starts with an ordinary guy discovering an abandoned spaceship and unfolds into something far less predictable.

My Buddy's Starship

In My Buddy's Starship, the universe is vast, unpredictable, and, for Mitch, unexpectedly personal. When his best friend reveals a starship hidden away in their small town, Mitch’s life takes an unimaginable turn. What was meant to be a weekend getaway quickly turns into a desperate journey across the galaxy, leaving Mitch stranded in a star cluster far from home.
