**Read** *Down & Out in the Magic Kingdom* online at the **Internet Archive**. **From the Back Cover** "*He sparkles! He fizzes! He does backflips and breaks the furniture!

A new group has taken over the Hall of the Presidents, and is replacing its venerable audioanimatronics with new, immersive direct-to-brain interfaces that give guests the illusion of being Washington, Lincoln, and all the others. For Jules, this is an attack on the artistic purity of Disney World itself. Worse: it appears this new group has had Jules killed. This upsets him. (It's only his fourth death and revival, after all.) Now it's war .... [1]: http://ia600604.us.archive.org/6/items/DownAndOutInTheMagicKingdom/DownandOutITMK.pdf
