The one where they have to find some scifi part for Ax.
Marco is nearly boiled alive as a lobster. 
They become ants and rival ants tear off their legs and nearly bite Marco in half.
Also, Marc's mother is alive.

Very enjoyable book. I really like the character arcs being set up in these books. I have it on good authority that those pan out, so that's nice for... I was going to say kids fiction but fiction in general, I guess.
