Perfect for you if...

  • You loved Jumper and want to revisit this world through a new character's perspective and coming-of-age struggles.
  • You enjoy stories about teenagers discovering hidden abilities and the difficult choice between safety and freedom.
  • You're drawn to science-fiction that explores the personal cost of extraordinary powers rather than just the action they enable.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You want a fast-paced action thriller, as this focuses more on Cent's internal journey and family dynamics than constant teleportation sequences.
  • You prefer standalone novels and don't want to read the original Jumper first to understand the setup.
  • You're looking for romance as a central plot, as Impulse prioritises Cent's self-discovery over relationships.

About this book

Impulse is a sequel to Steven Gould's novel Jumper, returning to that world. Cent lives in isolation with her parents, hidden from those who once captured and tortured her father to control his teleportation ability, and from government agencies seeking to exploit his talent. Though she has seen the world, it has only been while held safely by her parents. She has teleported more than anyone on Earth except her mother and father, yet has never been able to teleport herself. Her life has remained free from danger—until she goes snowboarding without permission and triggers an avalanche. As snow and ice descend on her, she suddenly finds herself in her own bedroom. This is the first time she teleports on her own. This edition is sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
