In A Planet Almost Like Ours—End Times?, Dounae de Dody, Willobee Wille, and their trusty desert guide, Baloo Dounae, have to prevent all time from being undone by the mysterious Um—a product of ancient and long-lost Dounae technology. A new character, Impotent-hep, tries to prevent their expedition, but his failure produces unexpected results.

Follow them as they leave Hot Dog Town and rejoin Baloo Dounae in search of the Thinking Cap of Dounaepu. Join them as they face challenges from salty quicksand, the Old One of the Mountain, and the Dounaetine Monks—and again pass over the Peaceful Ocean to the mysterious Isle of Dounaesaurs.
