Never back down, never give up! Fortnite meets The Avengers in this epically awesome adventure. Thirteen-year-old Teddy Habib and his friends are recruited to join a league of other gamers to save the world from a huge bug that's infecting longtime gamers and beginners alike, from the creative brains of gaming star NickEh30 and New York Times bestselling author E. C. Myers!
Never back down, never give up!
Thirteen-year-old Teddy Habib dreams of being a pro gamer. He just never expected he'd end up in the big leagues. And no, not the big esports competitions, like NickEh30. Big leagues as in if he doesn't win this game, the world as we know it is doomed.
When a mysterious new game developer unleashes a bug that's turning everyone into the "Glitched," the government's Special Division steps in. They recruit Teddy; his best friend, Stackz; Teddy's loyal and surprisingly cuddly German shepherd, Rocco; the indomitable TeenyTerrorPlays; and the agile Keke_Klutch to infiltrate the game.
But if the Stream Team fails . . . well, it's GAME OVER.
The Stream Team: Battle Squad is the first book in an epic new series by pro Fortnite streamer NickEh30 and New York Times bestselling author E.C. Myers. With stunning chapter header illustrations and cover art by renowned artist Ronaldo Barata (known for his cover work with Five Nights at Freddy's and interior art of Afro Unicorn: The Land of Afronia), this series opener is action-packed, tons of fun, and definitely NOT a glitch in the system. Plus, it's perfect for fans of Dustin Brady (Trapped in a Video Game and Escape from a Video Game), Andrea Towers (Gamer Girls), E.C. Myers's own work with RWBY and Five Night's at Freddy's, and of course, gamers who love Minecraft, Battlefront, Apex Legends, Overwatch, Halo, Call of Duty, and Super Smash Bros.
Features a Dyslexia-friendly font that follows the guidelines laid out by Nothing Comic About Dyslexia. Text format appeals to neurodivergent and neurotypical readers alike.
Also available in ebook and audio.

      Four young gamers gather for a boss battle against an insidious computer virus that threatens to take over both the virtual and real worlds in this work co-authored by popular professional gamer NickEh30. After outbreaks of rioting by zombified, purple-eyed fans of the mysterious new game Battle Squad kick off a string of virtual and IRL battles, the mysterious Special Division recruits four young world-class gamers--Lebanese Canadian Teddy "TedSh0t" Habib, South Korean Yuri "Keke_Klutch" Song, Argentinian Tina "TeenyTerrorPlays" Torres, and African American Maxwell "Stackz" Warren. It seems that an alien AI that can infect people through their optic nerves is bent on taking over the planet. Fortunately, the four each bring special powers to the fray thanks to mental updates from Layla, Teddy's shadowy coding whiz aunt. But can they blast virtual hordes of the Glitched (there are no real-world fatalities) and destroy the geomagnetic dome hovering over (real-life) Cairo, Egypt--all while figuring out a cool name for themselves and, most importantly, getting over their egos and learning to work together? Some readers might be after, as Tina puts it, "Less chat, more splat," and they'll be well served, but it's Teddy, with his insight that outsmarting the game is the real road to victory, who demonstrates true leadership qualities. The characterizations are paper thin, but the fast pace will keep the pages turning. Barata's lively spot art opens each chapter. Teamwork's the name of the game in this action-packed romp.(Adventure. 8-12)
