"Readers will burn through the pages as they traverse gorgeous, fully realized worlds replete with their own varied dramas. . . . Incredibly immersive and utterly unique." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Set in a universe where time is key to power and privilege, this dazzlingly inventive, genre-defying fantasy romance is the first in a duology by best-selling author Caroline O’Donoghue.


Margo is a troubled schoolgirl. After the death of her father, she’s on her way to a new boarding school in a new city.

Moon is a salesman. He makes his living traveling through a series of interconnected worlds on a network of barely used train lines.

They never should have met. But when Margo suddenly appears one day on Moon’s train, their fates become inextricably linked. If Margo wants to survive, she has to pass as a traveling salesman, too—except it’s not that easy.

Move north on the train line and time speeds up, a day passing in mere hours. Move south and time slows down—a day can last several weeks. Slow worlds are the richest ones: you live longer, your youth lasting decades. Fast worlds are sharp, cruel, and don’t have time for pleasantries. Death is frequent. Salesmen die young of skipshock. That is, if they’re not shot down by the Southern Guard first.

As Margo moves between worlds and her attachment to Moon intensifies, she feels her youth start to slip between her fingers. But is Moon everything he seems? Is Margo?

Told through the eyes of both naive Margo and desperate Moon, the unforgettable realm of Skipshock will shake the way you think about love, time, and the fabric of the universe. The first in a planned duology from the best-selling author of the Gifts series, this utterly original epic is a must-read.

Might be good for some playful dogs
My dog likes to play fetch with a rubber ball and figured I would give this one a tray as it moves on its own. It is a little on the larger size, so this is likely going to be for a large dog. My dog is about 30 pounds and it was too large of a ball for his mouth. You can open up the ball and set it to bounce on its own by hitting a switch. It will bounce all around and is very quiet. However, my dog is a little nervous and he freaked out at it moving. I ended up giving it to a friend and she said her dog loves chasing around her house and outside. It is a great idea and good for some dogs, but not if your dog is a little skittish.

Fun dog toy!
First, I was impressedby the quality of this ball. It seems quite well made. The adult twists it open, it's tight enough I know my dog cannot open it. Note - there are warnings it is dangerous for a dog to get to the inside. That noted, I would always supervise. There are two choices of modes, one more intense. Hold to activate your choice and tightly put back together. It worked right away, vibrating and shaking. The humans greatly enjoyed, especially a child. My dog, a bit fearful but curious. So we will slowly introduce to her. The is a USB cord included for charging, which is nice. Overall a fun item!

Fun
Great product and works as advertised. My dog is small and was not that interested in it, but my black Labrador was all about it. Simple to use and easy to charge. It’s durable and has lasted against my lab so far.

My kitten loves this ball
I originally got this for my 14-year-old dog because he has always loved balls, and I thought it might be a fun way to provide a little extra stimulation and entertainment. Unfortunately, he didn’t show much interest in it. However, I honestly think that may have had more to do with his age than the toy itself. The surprise was my kitten. She absolutely loved it and spent quite a bit of time chasing, batting, and interacting with it. Once she figured out that touching it would make it move, it really seemed to hold her attention. I mainly used the passive mode, where the toy only moves after being touched. I liked this setting because it felt less overwhelming and encouraged interaction without constantly running around on its own. Based on my experience, I think this toy is best suited for younger, curious pets that enjoy investigating moving objects. While it wasn’t a hit with my senior dog, it was definitely a success with my kitten. Overall, it seems well made, easy to use, and a fun option for playful pets.
