Synopsis
In a time like the present, in a world that may or may not be our own, three young peopleGinny, Jack, and Danieldream of a decadent, doomed city of the distant future: the Kalpa. But more than dreams link these three: They are fate-shifters, born with the ability to skip across the surface of the fifth dimension, inhabiting alternate versions of themselves. And each guards an object whose origin and purpose are unknown: gnarled, stony artifacts called sum-runners that persist unchanged through all versions of time. Hunted by others with similar powers who seek the sum-runners on behalf of a terrifying, goddess-like entity known as the Chalk Princess, Ginny, Jack, and Daniel are drawn into an all but hopeless mission to rescue the futureand complete the greatest achievement in human history., In a time like the present, in a world that may or may not be our own, three young people-Ginny, Jack, and Daniel-dream of a decadent, doomed city of the distant future: the Kalpa.

- *****- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoAwesome seller. Books arrived faster than I expected. The books were packaged very well and are in great condition. The seller's description of the books was right on the mark. The books were reasonable priced and I also appreciated the seller telling me where he got them from. I'm very happy and would definitely buy off this seller again.
- *****- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoI did not get the item, the Post Office misplaced or lost it. But since they lied and said that the item was "Delivered/Picked Up" NOT, there is really nothing I can do about it, and it is not the Seller's fault. He did his part, USPS, as usual, did not - and no surprise there at all. I won't be buying from eBay indefinitely because buyers get short shrift here. Terrible experience all in all, and I have zero recourse.Risposta di: apogee-perigee- Feedback con risposta del venditore apogee-perigee.- Feedback con risposta del venditore apogee-perigee.Bizarre Case. I requested search but USPS says that buyer picked up item at the post office so case is closed. Yet buyer states he/she never received item. What the heck ..?? I can not claim insurance as it shows delivered. Will keep trying
- *****- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoI received my purchase in the mail today. It’s exactly I subscribed it as well. Package for shipping. I received it in a timely manner. I would highly recommend the seller.
