Description
Seventeen-year-old Leopold Berry is seeing things that don't add up. A man with a tooth in a parking meter, a glowing trapdoor in a car park, and a half-mechanical raccoon on fire that just won't leave him alone. These hallucinations seem to be plucked from an old TV show called Max's Adventures in Sunderworld - but they're not just fantasies. Losing himself in the world of Max's Adventures was Leopold's way of coping with his mother's death and disappointing his father. But when these strange visions return, he turns to his best friend Emmet for help. Together, they discover that Sunder is more than just a TV show - it's real, and it's in grave danger. Leopold risks everything to save the world of his childhood dreams and prove himself, but things don't go as planned. His disappointments turn out to be more extraordinary than he ever could have imagined.
