Description

The kids are back in space! They follow the coordinates etched into the stone, um, given to them by Mr. Sparkles. Things seem just fine at first, when they encounter a town, with what looks like people walking around the square. But it doesn't take long for things to go haywire, and Finn has to solve a puzzle to save his friends. And we need your help! You may need to listen closely a second time around to figure it out. If you know the answer, send yours to earth@finncaspian.com. Good luck!

The Alien Adventures of Finn Caspian is a serialized science-fiction story for kids (start with Episode 1), told in 15-20 minute episodes for parents to put on when driving around town, or to marathon on road trips, or to bond over before bed. The story centers on Finn Caspian, an 8-year-old boy aboard The Famous Marlowe 280 Interplanetary Exploratory Space Station. He and his friends Abigail, Elias and Vale are Explorers Troop 301, taking off from the Marlowe to explore uncharted planets, help the occasional alien, and solve a mystery that threatens to destroy the Marlowe. When pressed, we describe it as a "mystery gang" story, sort of like Scooby-Doo in space. The story is written and performed by Jonathan Messinger, author of Hiding Out, former web editor of Time Out Chicago Kids, and father of two boys. His son Griffin, 7, serves as editor of the story, appearing in episodes to critique, make predictions and express skepticism that his father knows what he's talking about, which also happens to be the way the rest of their relationship works.
