Who is the mysterious bloodstained man who stops their coach? Why is no one around when Lance and the rest of Year Six arrive at the brand new Crater Lake activity centre?





But this is just the beginning of the school trip from hell; a fight for survival that sees five pupils band together to save their classmates from an alien fate far worse than death. But whatever happens, they must Never. Ever. Fall asleep!



As well as Book Buzz title, Crater Lake, and sequel, Crater Lake Evolution, Jennifer Killick is the author of the hilarious Alex Sparrow series, and middle-grade sci-fi adventure Mo, Lottie and the Junkers. She regularly visits schools and festivals, and her books have been selected for The Reading Agency's Summer Reading Challenge and World Book Day.



Jennifer's writing career really started when she applied for a Creative Writing MA at Brunel University, which is where she first got the idea for 'Alex Sparrow and the Really Big Stink.' She lives in Uxbridge, in a house full of children, animals and Lego. When she isn't busy mothering or step-mothering (which isn't often) she loves to read, write and run, as fast as she can.
