You can find him in Uncanny, The Years Best Science Fiction and Fantasy 2017, and in his multiverse bending collection, The Assimilated Cuban’s Guide to Quantum Santeria. Hernandez has written more than 30 works of fiction, poetry, and drama, not to mention game design-he served as one of the lead writers in the historical role playing game Meriwether: An American Epic. But even if you don’t read middle grade novels, Hernandez is an author to watch. His second middle-grade novel, Sal and Gabi Fix the Universe, sequel to last year’s Sal and Gabi Break the Universe(which was one of Den of Geek’s Best Books of 2019), has just been released through the Rick Riordan Presents imprint. But just because Sal and Gabi can do some interesting things to improve lives, does that mean that they should? When things get out of hand, it's going to require some truly out-of-the-box thinking to set things right.If you don’t read middle-grade fantasy, you may have missed out on reading the excellent fiction of Carlos Hernandez. She could use his help, too, because she has a newborn brother on life support. But when he meets Gabi, the student council president and editor of the school paper, he realizes she is someone he can work with.
At Culeco, his performing arts middle school, he just chalks it up to being a magician. Why can't they all just get along?Sal doesn't talk about his ability with anyone. Turns out he can reach into time and space to retrieve things from other universes-even his mom! He has promised his dad and stepmom that he won't bring back his mother anymore (it causes a lot of marital tension), but sometimes he can't help himself. But no one expected him to be able to take it further and "relax" things into existence. Rick Riordan Presents a brilliant sci-fi romp with Cuban influence that poses this question: What would you do if you had the power to reach through time and space and retrieve anything you want, including your mother, who is no longer living (in this universe, anyway)?In order to heal after his mother's death, Sal learned how to meditate.
