Using a stolen Transition Vehicle he has jumped from a dysfunctional society ruled by a corrupt elite called the Regency, to Abbuth, a world whose fair-minded if rather naïve and party-loving occupants have made remarkable scientific progress. Hugo's mission was to consolidate the Regency's grip on Abbuth and to help pervert their science to advance the Regency's military power. Hugo has no such plans. He intends to warn the Abbuthians of their peril, and also to meet Bettony Gullivant, the feisty hero whose journal forms the major part of book one of this series - Dangerous Physics: Adventures in Sputteridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnknown to anyone, Hugo's contact on Abbuth - TMB - is a psychotic killer who is pursuing a private vendetta against Bettony. TMB hunts Bettony across realities but completely underestimates her. Pretty soon, the hunter becomes the hunted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fast-paced story moves across different variations of Earth including one populated by a lethal cross between a turtle and a snake, and a world which seems to be centred around celebrity game shows and nostalgia tourism. Along the way, Bettony meets up with old friends and discovers how Bob has had his own mission sidetracked by the opportunity to appear in a holiday theatre production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15914321\"\u003eRose Mandelson\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e 186 Publishing Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/18\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781739781460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1739781465\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC028010\"\u003eScience Fiction | Action \u0026amp; Adventure\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC028120\"\u003eScience Fiction | Humorous\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"186 Publishing Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44707585163501,"sku":"9781739781460","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_1b8bcf17-c197-4598-a7ee-548833a21a19.jpg?v=1703973041","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/poisonous-reptiles-the-second-sputteridge-chronicle-9781739781460","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
