Best-selling author Rick Riordan presents Carlos Hernandez's sequel to
the critically acclaimed Sal and Gabi Break the Universe, a brilliant
sci-fi romp with Cuban influence.
*"This excellent sequel features nonstop multiverse hijinks, great
comedy, and heartening moments that are skillfully interwoven with a
subplot that features a delightfully surreal student production of
Alice in Wonderland."--Booklist (starred review)
Among many other challenges, Sal and Gabi have to try to make everything
right with our world when there is a rogue Gabi from another universe
running loose.
Sal Vidon doesn't want to live a Mami-free life. Pulling different
versions of his mother from other universes is how he copes with missing
his own, who died years ago. But Sal's father, a calamity physicist, is
trying to shut down all the wormholes Sal creates, because Papi thinks
they are eroding the very fabric of our world. All of Papi's efforts are
in vain, however, because a Gabi from another universe has gone rogue
and is popping up all over the place, seeking revenge for the fact that
her world has been destroyed.
While Sal and Gabi work together to keep both Papi and Rogue Gabi under
control, they also have to solve the mystery of Yasmany, who has gone
missing from school. Could it have something to do with the wormhole in
the back of his locker?
With multiple Sals and Gabis in charge, it's no wonder this sequel
offers even more hilarious weirdness and love than the first book.
