Synopsis

Jade Nyo just wants to party, but how is she supposed to enjoy herself when the world around her is falling apart?

It's 2026 and Jade's out clubbing in Glasgow when she runs into a trio of mysterious women in the toilets. They tell her they're Liminals: guardians of portals that let you travel through space and time. They give Jade something called an Acid Box and tell her she needs to use it to avert a global disaster.

But the Acid Box is broken, and Jade must travel back to 1994 in a quest to fix it. As she tries to change the future, the work and pressure of making friends and saving the world might just prove to be too much for her messy and imperfect brain...

A celebration of rave culture through history, ACID BOX explores what it means to be human. Balancing joy and anger, scientific theory and creative response, the unbearable weight of responsibility and the drive to make change - this book shows how exhausting and exhilarating it can all be.
