As the player for the Magellan Voyage Project, Adam competes against others for a four-million dollar prize. Trackers with blowguns and a nefarious baron don't make things easy.
Every kid's dream is to be named as the most valuable player. But how many ever dream that the game is a race around the world (no flying allowed) in just forty days? That's the challenge Adam faces in the great Global game. As the player for the Magellan Voyage Project, he competes against others for a four-million dollar prize! Trackers with blowguns and a nefarious baron don't make things easy.
