Hi! Bart King here. I’m a longtime teacher who writes high-interest books for younger readers and immature adults.
Choose Your Own Adventure published my latest book, Time Travel Inn. It traces the thrilling and hilarious quest of Astrid, a kid who’s moved to a new home and finds that it comes complete with a time machine AND a multiverse explorer.
“Mind-blowing adventure and heart-stopping thills!” —Jeff Kinney (author, Diary of a Wimpy Kid) on Time Travel Inn.
A few years ago, Disney-Hyperion published my funny novel, The Drake Equation. It’s a wacky adventure about Noah, a young birdwatcher who wants to save his school from danger — but ends up possibly destroying the world. More information on the book here!
“The Drake Equation has a lot going for it. There’s an immensely likable protagonist and his marvelous twin friends, a school life that feels true … and a mystery that really engages the reader. Bart King tosses a lot of balls in the air, keeping the twists fast and furious, but thankfully, while Noah is suitably overwhelmed, the reader isn’t.” —San Francisco Review of Books
