When two kids program a virtual reality, they accidentally create something that can destroy the world. Can they stop it before it's too late?Michael Goldman, a thirteen-year-old mathematical genius, is starting his freshman year at Franklin College. He has trouble fitting in with the other students, except for his roommate, Worm. The two are really into computers; and in a moment of inspiration, they decide to put together the world's most elaborate computer game in the school computer. Disregarding classes, parents, clean clothes and summonses from deans, they create Universe Prime, nothing less than a computer model of an entire alternate universe, complete with physical laws, planets, customs, folkways, and personalities. Two persons play the game, one dedicated to the destruction of Universe Prime, and one to its perpetuation. Michael goes to great lengths to invent formulae that will allow for time travel in this new universe, and when he does, finds that not only do they work, but that they may also work in the real world.Because his formulae are based on some observations by a Professor Terry Miller in Ohio, Michael races off to confer with him. Dr. Miller is delighted. He convinces Michael that they will probably share a Nobel prize. But this is before Michael and Worm discover what happens in Universe Prime when the game is played using the time travel formulae. Then they have to battle irate parents, distraught deans and Miller, himself, to keep secret what now seems to them to be the most dangerous discovery in the history of the world.

Can these brilliant chimps escape the jungle island the scientists have marooned them on?Danny was tired of language lab. For far too long, it seemed, he had been drilled every day in American Sign Language. Itwas time to take a rest. So he pretended he could no longer learn and he had forgotten most of what he had learned. Danny was a chimp, one of several being trained by scientists. And though Danny thought that what he had done was smart, he had really outsmarted himself. The scientists decided that chimps could not learn sign language after all and stopped the experiments. Danny and three other chimps—Roger, Nibbles and Tarzan—were placed on a jungle island to return to nature. The problems started right away. Tarzan did not seem to understand signs at all. Roger understood too much. He was, he said, a genius. And Nibbles was little more than a baby. She just wanted to go home to "Daddy."Accompanying them for a short time were two humans: Dr. Simeon and his assistant, Brian. They promised to come back from time to time to check on what was happening to the island. It was this promise that kept the four going and that prompted Roger to work out schemes for getting off the island. The only problem was that Roger was not to be trusted, Danny was sure of that. And his schemes might work only for Roger. Danny yearned for his old language lab, if for nothing else—he had dreamed of being a TV star. But first come the realities of life in the wild and of the desperate plots of Roger.
