Bogus to Bubbly: An Insider's Guide to the World of Uglies

by Scott Westerfeld

Bogus to Bubbly: An Insider's Guide to the World of Uglies Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

THE WORLD OF UGLIES, SET IN OUR NOT-SO-DISTANT FUTURE,is a complex place filled with bubbly technology and lingo, yet bogus rules about status and appearance. That's why a guide to the world of uglies has been requisitioned from the hole in the wall. Inside you'll find:

A rundown on all the cliques, from Crims and Cutters to tech-heads and surge-monkeys

The complete history, starting with the destruction of the oil bug to the launch of Extras in space

How all those awesome gadgets came to be: hoverboards, eyescreens, skintennas, sneak suits...

PLUS an exclusive look at Scott Westerfeld's first draft of Extras — starring Hiro, not Aya.

And so much more, it's mind-wrecking.

Synopsis:

Westerfield's "New York Times"-bestselling series has a huge fan base, many of whom write him asking questions about the world of Uglies. This guide to the series peels back the layers of the world, history, people, and places. Illustrations.
