Book Details:Hardback edition published by Victor Gollancz, London, 1982. Second impression. Sleeve notes:Simon and his American cousin Brad hadn't wanted to spend summer together. And the quiet London suburb where Simon lived was the last place they expected anything unusual to happen. Then the fireball came. The huge whirling ball of light was like nothing the boys had ever seen before - and they felt compelled to investigate. They awoke in a world where everything had changed. It was still England, but an England terrifyingly different from the one they had suddenly left behind. They had passed through the fireball. And they would have to learn to survive in the fascinatingly strange world on the other side. Book source:Terry Jenkins |
