Captain Marvel: Higher, Further, Faster

Summary

Carol Danvers kicks off her US Air Force career with her first year at flight school, where she'll be tested in ways she never thought possible - and make a lifelong friend, Maria Rambeau, in the process - in this atmospheric and exciting prelude to the upcoming Marvel Studios film Captain Marvel! Focusing on Carol Danvers and Maria Rambeau as they wend their way through a space that was still very much a "boys' club" in the '80s, the important sociocultural themes explored in this novel are sure to draw in not only fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but listeners of social-issue-focused YA who gravitate toward relatable protagonists learning to navigate the world around them and to succeed in the face of seemingly insurmountable adversity.
