Based on real (and morbid) questions from children, expert author Dr Matt Bothwell has created a Supervillain Academy to teach astrophysics to middle graders.

"Is time travel possible?"

"Can black holes collide?"

"What is dark matter?"

Discover the answers to these questions and many more at the Supervillain Academy - the magnificently morbid school for young bad folks-in-training. Discover how time can speed up or slow down depending on where you are, what happens when black holes collide, and whether wormholes could be the key to instant travel across vast distances.

At the Supervillain Academy, readers will learn about black holes, galaxies, the Universe, and, most importantly, the answer to the question "Do we live in a multiverse?". Perfect for fans of Kay's Marvellous Medicine and the Horrible Histories series, Astrophysics for Supervillains: Mastering the Multiverse (and Other Secrets of Space and Time) is the third book of the Supervillain Academy series that will have curious kids keen to get to school on time!
