The time has come at last for Sierra and her friends to face off against the evil conquerer Night on the far side of the Moon. First, however, they have to make the 240,000-mile journey to meet him!

Perhaps the most mysterious member of the Zodiac Dozen, Virgil connects at last with his friends in an unanticipated way. With his quick-thinking bravery, he might be the hero Milwaukee needs to overcome attacks on the sky's constellations.

Banding together with a few unlikely companions, Leona devises a plan to finally end the invasion that's been plaguing Milwaukee. Her biggest obstacle? The rest of the Zodiac Dozen, who remain unconvinced that her idea will work.

Though the members of the Zodiac Dozen are all scattered across the far corners of the zombified "Zone Q", there's no one alive more capable than Candace to reunite them. Based on what's coming, they're gonna need it.

Jeromy has lost a lot in the span of a single night. The culprit? An army of evil Moon-men, spreading chaos through the streets of Bay View with an odd alien affliction. Their aim? To find and steal the Orb of the Zodiac.

It's a simple life. Victoria spends every morning getting homeschooled by her father and every evening rewatching old black-and-white movies. Outside of that basic daily structure, however, she hasn't had too many life experiences. She's never taken a weekend, never gotten the slightest injury, and never even walked outside of her space-safe compartment-just like all the other kids living in her colony on the planet Venus.However, that's all about to change when a dream she has of Earth causes a strange and shocking chain reaction. From an explosion that punches through a wall in her compartment and exposes her to the vacuum she's been living in, to a hole in the floor that lets her eavesdrop on her parents, to a boy attempting to make contact from Earth, the dominoes are all in place for Victoria's alien world to come crashing down around her. Hopefully, the friendship of the Zodiac Dozen will be enough to help her rebuild it.The only problems are: she doesn't have a spacesuit, doesn't have a rocket, and doesn't know of any other way to get to Earth from her front door on Venus!

Aaron has always considered himself a pretty normal kid: enjoying normal hobbies, attending a normal seventh-grade class, and living in the normal neighborhood of Bay View in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The only difference between him and the other twelve-year-olds in town? A mysterious dream of landing in Lake Michigan from outer space that visits him once a year. Well, that, and the fact that he has a super-powered forehead - but everyone's got their quirks, right? Though he's never thought much of his yearly dream, some advice from his father causes Aaron to look into it. Could it be some sort of memory? Could the key to understanding it be at the bottom of the lake? Soon, his search introduces him to scuba diver duo Darius and Sierra. Turns out, Aaron might not be the only one who's ever had the dream - or who has special powers - as his two new friends seem oddly familiar with both already. With the constellations as their guide, the friends begin to suspect that there might be even more of their kind - twelve different kids, each with their own star-powered ability! Now, it's just a matter of finding the other nine; thus begins the formation of the Zodiac Dozen!
