About this ebook
The Whens of Wick:
Wick knows he's old. It's his memory that upsets him. Hovering somewhere around 120 years old, he's forgotten large chunks of his life, and Wick wants to know where he came from and how he began.
He recalls an important detail: a boy named Tad who had fed and cared for him when he was struggling to survive on his own. With few details to go on—a U.S. President hung in effigy and men lighting suckers on fire—Will thinks he knows the first When to visit and takes Wick on a journey to find Tad, find himself, and learn how he came to be.
The Book of Hyrum:
Hyrum Munson spent two years walking across the continent for one reason: to deliver a message to his sister, the Queen: Daddy wants to kill Red and the Prince. He has no way of knowing that the war ended shortly after he left home, or that Levi is long dead. Hyrum, an eight-year-old boy stuffed into a middle aged body, only wants two things: to be good, and to remain in Pacifica. As Pacifica balances on the brink of nuclear war, Hyrum is stuck in the middle. If he goes home, he makes his mother happy and lives eternally as a little boy grown old, feared by his family. If he stays, he distances himself from the shadow of a life of abuse and has a chance at happiness.
Wick watches it all, the tight circle forming around Hyrum, the joy and wonder of his personality, and wants to know why his own family so afraid of him. The answer, he comes to see, is electrifying.
JUMP:
Ozoo Enterprises is open and ready to start work on the computer systems that might run Elysium. Will also has a side project of his own: a personal transporter, one that will allow him to manipulate space—sending people hundreds of miles with the tap of a keyboard—and circumvent time, opening the possibility not only for time travel on earth, but beyond.
Hyrum Munson is settling into his new post-continental-walk life in San Francisco with his sister and brother-in-law, the Queen and King of Pacifica. He's happier than he's ever been and loves his new routine—except, perhaps, having to learn fractions—but he's upset over losing the one thing that matters the most to him, and is obsessing over where he left it.
When Hyrum confesses to Wick that what he treasures most in the world is in his lost wallet, Will and Drew decide to put the transporter to a good test, and go in search of it. They follow Hyrum across the continent in a series of jumps, looking for the moment when he drops his beloved wallet, and discover there's far more to Hyrum and the thread of time that binds them together than they ever considered possible.
The King of Saint Francis:
The King is tired. He's itching to abdicate in favor of becoming a beach bum. He needs time off before his abuse of the Queen's Bad Word List invites her ire. When the crash of an air car on Union Square propels one of the Guard to force him through a portal, he has the chance to take a few days in Will's birth When to relax, recoup…and hunt the man who tormented his daughter.
Jax wants the dark wizard of Saint Francis dead, and neither Drew nor Wick understands why the Emperor is willing to accommodate his desire to kill someone. Still, going into Saint Francis means time with Shivan, Jeff the Dragon, and Fluffy the Giant Cat, so they follow, pulling along a junior reporter whose quiet confusion and usefulness is questionable, and hope that before the wizard is dead that someone tells them why Jax is so willing to kill, and why neither the Emperor nor the Queen has any intention of stopping him.
