Kal's Fate
An innocent girl with a mysterious father… … finds herself a fugitive on the galaxy’s most wanted list. Considered too fragile, Kal is forbidden to join the raising of the Et’Tal’s home and feels as if she has shamed her family. Her lithe stature links her to her absent father. He left the village to fight in the Teristaque Wars and never returned. She meets Sarge, a strange star species called Human, who seems to know the secret of the patch from her father’s uniform. Before she can get clarity, a fierce Teristaque death squad descends on her village, murders everyone in it, and takes Kal prisoner. Kal wants more than just answers. She wants revenge.
You Can't Be Serious
"Kal Penn's unlikely career arc has taken him from nerdy American kid from an immigrant family in the New York suburb of Montclair, New Jersey, to world-famous actor, to White House staffer under President Obama, and back to actor again. Now, in You Can't Be Serious, he reflects on the most ridiculous, offensive, and rewarding moments that have stood out during his journey. With intelligence, humor, and charm on every page, Penn explores what it means to be the embodiment of the American Dream, as the child of immigrant parents who came to this country with very little, and who never expected to see their son get his big break by sliding off an oiled-up naked woman in a raunchy Ryan Reynolds movie. He also pulls back the curtain on racism in Hollywood and the constant reminders that he would never fit in. And of course, he reveals how, after twenty-five years fighting for success in Hollywood, he made the terrifying but rewarding decision to walk away from it all for a career in politics. Above all, You Can't Be Serious shows that everyone can have more than one life story. Penn bravely demonstrates by example that no matter who you are and where you come from, you have many more choices than those presented to you. It's a story about struggle, triumph, and learning how to keep your head up. And okay, yes, it's also about whether Kal really smoked weed in the White House with the former First Lady--because let's be honest, that's what you really want to know"--
The Three Kingdoms
Kal may seem like an ordinary teenager— he goes to school, loves (and gets annoyed by) his little brother, and works part time at the local burger joint—but Kal is anything but. After the death of their mother, Kal and his little brother Rocko find themselves with a successful but absent father. Kal tends to lose himself to history, recalling the stories his historian grandfather would tell and watching shows on the History Channel. Yet Kal’s life is about to be turned upside down with the appearance of a strange figure at work, ending in Kal finding himself in a hospital bed and the Floppy Burger blown to pieces. Kal, Rocko, and Kal’s friends Max and Emily are met by Renier, a friend of Kal’s father, and taken home after another mysterious attack on his life, and when Rocko begins to lose consciousness and recites words strange and unknown, all five find themselves in a completely new world, and the secrets their father held on to so tightly begin to unravel.
