Uglies

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

Scott Westerfeld

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.
