The inventor of the world's most advanced scientific machine, the Large Haldron Collider, has gone crazy and wants to send the planet into a distant, deathly frozen orbit around the sun. He has an army of zombies to help him, but he needs certain volcanic gases from the Pacific Rim of Fire to succeed. Only Bugley, together with Junior High students Dan and Maia, stand in his way. Bugley is an innocent looking small car that has been secretly modified by advanced scientists and aircraft and drone designers to be much more than he appears. The great tectonic plates under the Pacific Rim of Fire and the volcanoes that spring from them, and the native indigenous people living there, will hold the key to whether they can succeed in saving the world, or not. Bugley and the Fire Demon Island takes them to one of the secret islands of the Pacific. It is the first book of the Bugley and the Rim of Fire series, set in different locations around the Pacific Rim of Fire.

In the Bugley series, Malicimus, the inventor of the world's most advanced scientific machine, the Large Hadron Collider, has gone crazy, and plans to destroy all life on the planet by sending the planet into a freezing distant orbit around the sun. Only Junior High students Dan and Maia stand in his way. To stop him they must find five rare volcanic gases from unknown parts of the Pacific Rim of Fire. Fortunately they have Bugley on their side. Bugley is a small car secretly modified by top scientists and drone designers and can talk, fly and even become invisible. The Pacific Rim of Fire, with its tectonic plates, volcanoes, and native indigenous peoples, holds the key as to whether Dan and Maia and Bugley can find the gases, and save the world. In this book, Bugley and the Valley of the Incas, the second in the Bugley series, their search leads them to the Galapagos Islands and the Sacred Valley of the Incas in Peru. The first book in the series, Bugley and Fire Demon Island, took them to the mysterious island volcano, White Island, in New Zealand.

Cuts through all the noise of today's political dysfunction and cultural wars to sound the deeper causes of discontent. Americans are living, David Bosworth argues, in a profoundly transitional era, one in which the commonsense beliefs of the first truly modern society are being undermined by the still crude but irreversible forces set loose by technology's drastic revision of our everyday lives.
