New York Times bestselling series

Tensions are running high when multi-billionaire Lars Sjoburg is poisoned and demands to go home and everyone is looking to Dash Gibson to solve the case in this third and final book in the New York Times bestselling Moon Base Alpha series.

Moon Base Alpha was supposed to be an exciting place to live, but Dash didn’t expect for it to be this exciting. After solving a murder and rescuing the moon base commander, he just wants to have a calm, quiet thirteenth birthday. But of course multi-billionaire and total pain Lars Sjoburg ruins it—by being poisoned.

Now there’s a murderer loose on Moon Base Alpha again. And Dash is charged with finding out who it could have been.

Everyone has a motive, and time is running out.

I love Space And anything to do with Rockets or Astronauts. I saw it at the library in school and think it would be a good read.

This is the 3rd and final installment in the Moon Base Alpha series by Stuart Gibbs, and this book was a great conclusion to this series. Dash Gibson is celebrating his birthday, which isn't very exciting as you would think. But his parents are making it work, by getting him candy and letting him go on the moon to play catch, but when Nina catches them, they know they are in trouble. Only thing is, they are not. Instead, Nina needs Dash to solve a case. Lars has been poisoned, and now it's Dash who needs to solve the case before more people get sick. But Dash doesn't want. The only reason he is is because Nina is threatening him to, because if he doesn't, his family may never be able to go home. Will Dash solve the case of who poisoned Lars, or will his family, and many others, continue to be in danger of food poisoning? Stuart Gibbs did it again in this final book in the MBA series, and I give it 4 starts for the mystery and action that took place!

Very good, has the same feel and vibe as the other books in the series. But most points and plot twists feel forced, and some moments can be boring, and I feel that the ending was abrupt. But overall, a great read.

Dashiell has to solve yet another mystery in this third book of the Moon Base Alpha series by Stuart Gibbs. Though I liked his other series Spy School a little better than this one, it was still pretty good. In this book, someone gets poisoned! How many ways will people almost die in one tiny moon base? Dash gets called on by the moon base commander to solve the mystery, since he figured out the last two. He just wants to relax on the moon and try to live as normal as a life as he can. In the end, it turns out to be the person everyone least expected. And also, there was another crisis happening during all of that, but I won't spoil too much!
