Besties Yang Kuaikuai and Li Yu are soon to graduate middle school and face a familiar decision: stick around their small Chinese town, or set their sights to the big city. On a lark, they join their school’s Comet Club, a ragtag band of nerds obsessed with what lies beyond the reaches of the stars. When one day the group spies strange glowing lights in the mountains and hikes out to investigate, what they find will forever change their lives. The English language debut of Chinese cartoonist Yi Yang, Comet Club is a coming-of-age story of broken families, the bonds of friendship, and the need to carve out one’s path in life.
