When a second half of the meteor is found north of the border where her best friend Nate is on a spring break trip, she’ll have to face her fears and venture into Canada to find him.

Midwestern Mayhem! Remember the '90s? Well... the town of Demise, North Dakota doesn't, and they're living in the year 1997.

Now it's up to nineteen-year-old Realene and her best friend Nate to stop the spread and defeat the worms before the entire town loses its mind. The only things standing in the way are their troubled pasts, a doomsday cult, and an army of infected prairie dogs.

Like, insanely better!

Only now it’s better! We would love to ask someone at Ellis about this, but nobody’s answering the phone over there.

What is time? Why is time? How is time? When is time? Also, what is time? Important questions one and all, but for Captain Space Hardcore—intergalactic adventurer, full-time hero, raconteur, accomplished oboist—there is a more pressing question: how do you fight a time travelling madman who wants to end your life? How does one fight a man who can bend time as easily as a chimpanzee bends a hose (i.e., quite easily)? How can you stop a man who can transport back to find you as an infant, then fire you into the sun? How to best a villain who can wipe out your great grandfather?

Between duct-taping patched coolant lines, arguing with an ancient navigation computer, and wrangling Patience Station’s maintenance headaches, Rix can barely keep ahead of the chaos. His shop is overflowing with broken photonic barrier generators, impounded cruisers, and a growing list of “favors” he apparently owes half the station.
