Synopsis

Infection. Infestation. Infinity... Can Ri untangle this latest madness? A terrible threat to humanity's existence which he helped create?

There's something strange stirring within the sleepy town of Desert Lime. Faint and wild whispers in the wind. Otherworldly murmurs from across the expanse of space and time. Crafty shape-shifters have crept into his school.

Ri is intertwined in another epic adventure where he's compelled to outwit bizarre life forms with insidious intentions. But first can he unmask their leader? A stealthy and mysterious alien called the Plague Doctor.

No one is safe.

In a race to determine who to trust he must stop the planet from crumbling into a barren wasteland before time runs out...

That's it. No pressure.

Will Ri step up and become the hero we all need? Once again, the fate of our world rests upon the shoulders of a snarky thirteen-year-old!
 
"Reading this book is a little like landing in Oz. Or climbing through the Looking Glass. Chasing a White Rabbit. Chatting with H.G. Wells. Or traveling through Mirkwood. On an "infinite escalator." Think The Matrix or Honey, I Shrunk the Kids meets Men in Black. With one humdinger of a surprise ending. It crackles with energy, radiating wit and warmth like heat from a blast furnace. I can't remember the last time I had so much fun reading a middle grade novel!" - Kristine L., Netgalley Reviewer

About this title

About the Author

Matt Guzman is somewhat spoiled. The residents of beautiful San Diego, CA allow him to live there, and they barely complain about it. After managing restaurants for twenty years, he made a drastic decision. Quit. And use everything he learned the hard way about leadership and communication to help children. He's obsessed with emotional health and storytelling. Combining these two passions, Matt crafts sci-fi stories for his twelve-year-old self-still hiding inside his adult brain. He once won an honorable mention from the Writers of the Future Contest. That went straight to his head and now there's no stopping him.
