Goodreads Summary:
Given the chance,
fifteen-year-old Peregrine “Perry” Eckert would dedicate every waking
moment to Creatures & Caverns, an epic role-playing game rich with
magical creatures, spell casting, and deadly weapons. The world of
C&C is where he feels most comfortable in his own skin, so when his
parents ship him off to summer camp Perry is sure he’s in for the worst
summer of his life.
Everything changes, however, when Perry gets to camp and stumbles into the World of the Other Normals. Perry’s new otherworldly friends need his help to save their princess and prevent mass violence. As they embark on their quest together, Perry realizes that his nerdy childhood has uniquely prepared him to be a great warrior in this world, and maybe even a hero.
Bestselling author Ned Vizzini delivers a compulsively readable and wildly original story about the winding and often hilarious path to manhood.
