Kingston and the Echoes of Magic

In the second book in the series, Kingston and his friends must find a way to travel through the Realm to save their world from destruction. Kingston might have saved Echo City but the victory is bittersweet without his pops by his side. The holidays are approaching and if Kingston could have one wish, it would be to have his father, who is trapped in the Realm, come home. But as new problems arise and blackouts blanket the city, Kingston begins to have a persistent feeling of déjà vu, as if he's lived this same day before-and he has. Echo City living up to its name, is caught in a repeating time loop. Maestro, his father's old rival, has found a way to overwrite reality with an alternate timeline where he rules over all. It will be up to Kingston, Too Tall, and V to find a way to enter the Realm and travel back through time to stop Maestro and save Brooklyn before it's erased for good.

But the moon had a clever plan.... Carmen Agra Deedy and Jim LaMarche have brilliantly crafted an original pourquoi tale about finding one's place in the universe.

L'Albert, després de barallar-se amb uns companys de l'institut, s'escapa de dues companyes que el persegueixen en moto i es refugia en una fàbrica. Allà es troba amb un desconegut deforme amb qui estableix una relació especial a fi d'ajudar-lo a descobrir un ésser estrany que aparentment viu al mateix edifici. Res no és el que sembla.

Resulta ser un viatge accidentat en forma de thriller a la ment del protagonista que permet fantasiejar i que convida a no apropar-nos a fàbriques abandonades... Tot i així, malgrat sembrar la intranquil·litat, res no és el que sembla. - Àngel Burgas (Figueres, 1965) és escriptor.
