It all started when letters began creeping up in math class. They were scary. They were unknown. They were hiding. As Marco learned the true nature of the Numberfolk, things only got worse. Numbers control the universe, concealing themselves in everything we see, hear, touch, and feel.
Luckily, his tutor Mr. Pikake taught Marco how to guard the guards. He mastered hunting, became an expert at building Numberfolk formations, and used his skills to stop a madman and save the world. But he wasn't alone.
With more bubbling beneath the surface, cryptic clues pushing Marco closer to a mysterious destiny and a secret society hungering for domination, he recruited his brilliant litter sister Maggie and their friends, Oliver, Liam, and Penelope, to uncover the truth and set things on the right path.
Now, Marco finds himself ripped from everything and everyone he knows, facing his most daunting challenge yet. He's just a normal teenager. He isn't a math kid. How can he possibly solve the biggest questions the universe has to offer?
Geometry comes alive in the captivating conclusion to the Marco the Great series.
