Project Paranormal: A Folding Space Book

by L. A. Patrick, Matt Fullerty (Editor), Jennifer K. Groves (Illustrator)

Overview

It is the year 2063. Jeremy wants a Pan Limbic Universal Gadget (PLUG) in the worst way. How else can he compete with his plugged-in peers and become a famous astrophysicist when he grows up? But his parents have other ideas, including a secret genetic project which promises to unlock paranormal traits in their children as they enter puberty...a project which might explain the large number of near fatal accidents Jeremy has survived since infancy...a project easily invaded by evil forces. Project Paranormal is a mixture of time travel, an immortal evil spirit, and politics.
