Jo-Jo, a disillusioned soul, is transported to a \"slice-of-unused-history\" where Alice has sought refuge. Punch, a hardened renegade, is mysteriously blown through a hedge into a magical wood. Evie, an androgynous refugee from another existence, brings them all to the 21st century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTogether, these eight individuals stumble upon the derelict site of No-Name Roundabout, a place brimming with new possibilities. As they revive a collapsing transport café, they take a brief detour to a parallel planet, guided by a luminous and self-important rabbit. The traveling showman's van takes them on an uncanny trip through time, raising questions about the burned man under the hill and how it fits into the larger picture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmidst these adventures, a baleful, inhuman presence haunts them. Until it is excised, an ugly knot will remain tangled in the fabric of the planets. However, amidst the chaos, a comedy of errors unfolds, tempered by mutual love and affection. Can metaphysics and morality finally be resolved?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe journey of these four strangers is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of unexpected connections. As they navigate through time and space, they discover the importance of empathy, compassion, and the pursuit of truth. Their adventures may be filled with humor and confusion, but they ultimately lead to a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246 x 171 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781803136622\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Hulme","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44515846095098,"sku":"9781803136622","price":5.36,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1692375901999_book.jpg?v=1692885542","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/noname-roundabout-part-1-9781803136622","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
