Puberty is tough. But try being Nitrogen.

Sixteen-year-old Noah Vale has just discovered something impossible:

• He is the living embodiment of the chemical element Nitrogen.

• His family run an intergalactic pizza business. From Cornwall.

• Noah can pass through walls and freeze things.

• One day he may even fly.

Which would be exciting if he had the faintest idea how any of it works.

Meanwhile Mother Nature and Dark Matter are in the middle of a catastrophic cosmic divorce.

And a chef has just been murdered by lightning on a completely clear day.

It’s a mystery Noah cannot ignore.

The deeper Noah digs, the clearer it becomes that this was never just a murder.

Because someone, somewhere, is trying to repossess the Earth.

And in Noah’s world, the laws of chemistry are about to become very personal.

As powerful forces move behind the scenes, Noah must figure out who he really is, the science behind his powers, and why dangerous enemies believe the fate of an entire planet depends on him.

And the next clue might kill him.

Quantum Pizza is the first Noah Vale Mystery, a fast-paced YA science-fiction adventure packed with clever science, sharp humour, and a mystery that stretches far beyond Earth.
