(The Young Adult Edition of Wormholes has been edited to eliminate adult language and situations.) Something is devouring Earth. . . A suburban house in Oklahoma vanishes into a roaring abyss. A supertanker at sea suffers a fiery destruction. A blast in China drills a gigantic cavern into a mountainside. A severed arm plummets from the sky in Missouri. Could these catastrophes possibly be related? Intrepid geologist Dacey Livingstone is nearly killed by her first attempt to plumb the mystery—a perilous descent into a house-swallowing sinkhole. Still determined, she joins with eccentric physicist Gerald Meier in a quest that takes them from the ocean's depths to interstellar space. What are these exotic "wormholes" that threaten Earth? Can their secrets be discovered, their power even harnessed? Or will they spawn a celestial monster that will annihilate the planet? Brilliantly original, Wormholes reflects Albert Einstein's famous assertion that "Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine." Veteran science writer Dennis Meredith has crafted this cosmic adventure drawing on his decades of experience working at leading research universities such as Caltech, MIT, Cornell and Duke.

An aging inventor, who is accidentally infected with regenerative nanotechnology, creates a wormhole that allows him to time travel back 12,000 years, where he meets the girl of his dreams. Continually regenerating into healthy young people, throughout the centuries the inventor and his Stone Age bride struggle to save the future, whilst protecting his invention from human greed and the lust for power. But saving humanity is not an easy task. His wormhole technology is used to cross space and reach a whole new world to inhabit, and that is not without its problems. *** Today marks our anniversary of the first fifty years following the exodus to the new world. It’s the anniversary of our starting a new life on our new planet. This fine day I found myself and my lady sitting on a rocky outcrop, overlooking what was once an alien landscape. But after a lifetime of seeing this land and our community grow, it is now regarded as normal, and our home. Relaxing in the warm sunshine and quietly listening to the bubbling stream cascading by, my mind was free to wander back to the time it all started. It was, oh so long ago. In a time and place that is now nothing but a distant memory. I can still remember what it was that inspired me to invent the first ever fully functioning wormhole, in the year 2015, Earth time.

Herbert Slewg and his hapless, video game–addicted neighbor Alex Filby have stumbled upon what Einstein could only theorize about: a wormhole through the space/time continuum.

Herbert, Alex, and their mutual crush, Sammi Clementine, century-hop across time in order to outwit a disgruntled “G’Dalien. By foiling his evil plot, they save the planet and become 22nd-century hometown heroes in this smart-alecky (but friendly), inventive, wry, and very visual creation.

For use in schools and libraries only. For fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate comes the sequel to Peter Nelson and Rohitash Rao's Herbert's Wormhole, the breakout novel-in-cartoons that J. K. Rowling called "absolutely wonderful-fast-paced, inventive, engaging, and hilarious." Herbert, Alex, and Sammi are heroes in the year 2109, having successfully saved the planet from an alien invasion (or so everyone thinks). Everything is going just swimmingly until, inevitably, real aliens appear-the evil, destruction-obsessed Klapthorians. The crew is going to come clean, but then they meet a crazy old man-who turns out to be Alex, age 109-with a plan for saving the world all over again. Can they do it and still make it back home by curfew? The sequel to Herbert's Wormhole is chock-full of the same humor, imagination, and irresistible artwork as the first title. There are hijinks aplenty, not to mention skateboard stunts, time travel, and a whole lot of fake moustache shenanigans. Fans, old and new alike, will not be disappointed.
