There was nothing, and then there was a train. A train with two passengers: a petty thief from a dead-end town, and an android girl who could be more human than the rest of us. Join Zen and Nova as they find out what really lies beyond the end of the universe . . .
Take a ride in Philip Reeve’s incredible imagination as he returns with this stellar follow-up to Railhead. Full of extraordinary beings and utterly real, complex characters, of thrills and thoughtful moments, this is a stunning step beyond the universe which will appeal to both sci-fi fans and foes alike.
Reviews
An amazing book that is the second in the Railhead series and leaves you on the edge of your seat wanting more. Zen Starling is the first with his Motorik friend Nova to explore the wonders that lie beyond their own worlds and into the web of worlds, however they uncover a deep mystery...

We enjoyed this as an Audio book on a family road trip, it was exciting for the whole family including parents and teen brothers. Even though this is the 2nd book in a trilogy it gave enough details of the back story to be able to enjoy the story without having read the 1st. My brother has now got the other books from the library.

I really liked this book about the future, my favourite character was Nova because you aren't really sure what she'll do next. I would recommend it to anyone who likes sci-fi.
