Space Zoo (Paperback)

The race is on! Countries from all over the world scramble to be the first to get a zoo in outer space up and running, one that will showcase the most remarkable animals from the newly discovered planets. Ahead is the United States, thanks to the work of famed architect and engineer, De'Quan Bo'Tang. The opening of the park is days away. Scheduled is a three-day tour. Invited are some of the most rich and powerful people in the country, from politicians to famous actors. The eyes of the world will be watching.World renowned explorer, Joe Connell, is head zoo-keeper. His job is to handle the many species housed in the park and oversee the various exhibits. These opening ceremonies are extra special for Joe. His family, who he has not seen in two years, have been invited to attend. During this two-year absence, Joe's relationship with his wife Gayle has been strained, he misses his son Henry, and whatever thin thread that was keeping him in the good-graces of Gayle's daughter from a previous marriage, Katie, has snapped. He is excited to be able to use their visit to repair the damage and bring them all back together again, as a family. After the zoo is sabotaged, the animals get free from their enclosures and chaos ensues, leaving the staff of Space Zoo with the seemingly impossible task of restoring order. Meanwhile, for head zoo-keeper Joe Connell, he must journey through the park to rescue his scattered family from some of the most dangerous creatures in the galaxy.
