About The Extraordinary Disappointments of Leopold Berry by Ransom Riggs
Seventeen-year-old Leopold Berry begins seeing bizarre sights around Los Angeles that seem to have come straight from Max’s Adventures in Sunderworld, a cheesy 1990s fantasy TV show. He knows the show well: after his mother died, he found its VHS tapes and became absorbed in their strange world, using them to escape grief and the pressure of his overbearing father.
When the visions return, Leopold and his best friend Emmet investigate the connection between the old show and the world around them. Their search reveals that Sunderworld is real—and in danger. Ransom Riggs’s 2024 young adult fantasy follows Leopold as he tries to claim a heroic destiny and prove he is more than the disappointment his father thinks he is. It may suit readers looking for urban fantasy, magic, and an adventure that brings childhood imagination into unsettling reality.
