Imagine a world where everything that has ever been dreamt of exists. A place where giant octopus-like creatures fly through the sky. Where a fortress is built inside the corpse of a long-dead giant and where people can move at the speed of thought. Now imagine no longer, for this is The Other Place. Trillions of light years away yet startlingly close, with a logic so twisted it has to be true. Your imagination is only the first step- dare you take the next? As Greenery Jackson, an ordinary twelve-year-old schoolboy from an ordinary seaside town in north-west England, soon discovers, The Other Place is not necessarily a very nice place to be. In fact, it's downright dangerous. A motley tribe of evil-looking monsters known as the Violents is making a comeback and for some reason they've got Greenery in their sights. With his two companions - the diminutive, shape-shifting Punster and the tough Djinditsu warrior Towelyn - Greenery may be the only hope that The Other Place has. Thrilling adventure, outrageous jokes and cutting-edge science all collide explosively in this mind-bogglingly brilliant novel. -- pub. website.
