InterWorld

by Neil Gaiman

HARPERCOLLINS PUBLISHERS | April 22, 2008 | Trade Paperback

An astounding tale of adventure, danger, magic, science, friendship, spaceships, and, oh yeah, the battle to save all the people in all the worlds in all possible dimensions.

Joey Harker isn''t a hero.

In fact, he''s the kind of guy who gets lost in his own house.

But one day, Joey gets really lost. He walks straight out of his world and into another dimension.

Joey''s walk between worlds makes him prey to armies of magic and science, both determined to harness Joey''s power to travel between the dimensions. The only thing standing in their way is Joey-or, more precisely, an army of Joeys, all from different dimensions and all determined to save the worlds.

Now Joey must make a choice: return to the life he knows or join the battle to the end.

    Awesome novel about a 15 year old boy with special powers to walk between dimensions. Both a morality tale about right and wrong, and the balance between science and magic. Stayed up half the night just to find out how it ended. Looks like it might be the beginning of a new series, as well, with just enough loose ends to leave it open for more, or for the imagination to run wild

    Fun, Light Read

    One day Joey Harker walks right out his own reality on Earth into an alternate reality. He finds out he is one of the Walkers, a group of people comprised of alternate Joeys from many alternate worlds who try to save the many worlds from destruction by the bad guys. This story really reminded me of StarGate SG 1 but instead of traveling to other planets they traveled to alternate realities. An interesting premise and a cute story complete with the requisite cute character, a mudluff who resembled a bubble. A fun, light read but nothing overly special. My copy states the intended age as 10+, though I would narrow that down further to the 10-12 age group.
