Hip-hop. Sci-fi. Kung-fu. Thirteen-year-old Wax's life may not be perfect, but that doesn't stop him from spinning some of the sickest beats on their Brooklyn block...but he's a better DJ than he thinks. One night, while making a mixtape for his crush, Wax scratches the perfect beat and responds to an interstellar challenge that transports him and the entire block to the robot-filled planet of Discopia.
Mistaken by the locals for a master of the futuristic sound-bending martial art known as SCI-FU, Wax finds himself on the wrong side of a showdown against the Five Deadly Dangers and their leader, Choo Choo. With help from the sci-fu master Kabuki Snowman and Wax's crew--including his best friend Cooky P, his sister The D, and even his crush, Pirate Polly--Wax has to become a sci-fu master or risk losing Earth forever!---from the publisher
