![]() ![]() There's simply no knowing where Cent and this series are headed next.but it'll sure be interesting to find out.” - Kirkus Reviews, starred review As in the previous book, Cent's genius and her social skills (considering that she's been discouraged from creating close bonds with anyone outside her immediate family) seem almost more unusual than her teleporting ability, but her character has an intellectual and emotional validity as well as an inherent likability that encourages the reader to overlook those quibbles. By constantly experimenting with new tropes and extending the limits of the Harrison-Rice family's power to teleport, Gould ensures that each installment remains fresh and enthralling. He began by mixing speculative fiction, adventure and bildungsroman, then added in political and corporate thriller this novel is primarily hard sci-fi while maintaining the other genres. Gould grows more ambitious with every book in the Jumper series. ![]() ![]() “Gould literally raises the bar on teleportation in this sequel to Impulse. Fans of the series should give this one an enthusiastic response.” - Booklist “The question is, What is she prepared to risk in order to live the kind of life her special gift opens up for her? Like its predecessors, the novel straddles the line between YA and adult fiction its lead character is a teen, but the story has many adult-themed elements, and its writing seems geared more toward older readers. ![]()
