One night after an evening out, Jason Dessen, forty-year-old physics professor living with his wife and son in Chicago, is kidnapped at gunpoint by a masked man, driven to an abandoned industrial site and injected with a powerful drug. As he wakes, a man Jason's never met smiles down at him and says, "Welcome back, my friend." But this life is not the one he knows. His wife is not his wife; his son was never born; and he's not an ordinary college professor, but a celebrated genius who has achieved something impossible. Is it this world or the other that's the dream? How can he possibly make it back to the family he loves? The answers lie in a journey more wondrous and horrifying than anything he could have imagined--one that will force him to confront the darkest parts of himself as he battles a terrifying, seemingly unbeatable foe. …

A quick and easy read. It works if you're just looking for some entertainment and nothing more.

Spannende aber auch langatmige Passagen...

Das Buch ist eine Mischung aus Thriller und Science Fiction und hat durchaus ein paar interessante Ansätze zum Thema Multiversum und Zeitreisen. Die Protagonisten kommen aber eher etwas flach daher. Insgesamt kurzweilige Unterhaltung.

Die Lektüre liegt bereits ein paar Jahre zurück.
Kann mich erinnern, dass die Grundidee äußerst ansprechend und rasant umgesetzt war.
Allerdings verlor sich das Buch im letzten Drittel in völlig absurde Ereignisse. Von Allem zu viel und dadurch nicht mehr sehr glaubwürdig.

5 Sterne
Really thrilling book. Has, of cause, minor flaws regarding paradox problems but that's not uncommon if you take the story and the technique into account.
Was a fun and thrilling read from cover to cover.
