This second 13th Reality story takes Tick and his friends on another quest to save the branching alternate realities composing the universe. This time the threat is a nano-disease created by the villainous CEO Reginald Chu that drives its victims insane. As in the first volume, Tick moves ahead in his rather formulaic adventure by solving puzzles (here less intriguing).
