InterWorld InterWorld

Publisher Description

When Newbery Medal winner Neil Gaiman and Emmy Award winner Michael Reaves teamed up, they created the bestselling YA novel InterWorld.
 
InterWorld tells the story of Joey Harker, a very average kid who discovers that his world is only one of a trillion alternate earths. Some of these earths are ruled by magic. Some are ruled by science. All are at war.
 
Joey teams up with alternate versions of himself from an array of these worlds. Together, the army of Joeys must battle evil magicians Lord Dogknife and Lady Indigo to keep the balance of power between all the earths stable. Teens—and tweens and adults—who obsessively read the His Dark Materials and Harry Potter series will be riveted by InterWorld and its sequel, The Silver Dream.

Great

This book was excellent and don't let my following comments deter you from enjoying a fantastic story that plunges the reader into a mired of strange and fantastic worlds. The only qualm I have with the book is it's simplicity. Throughout the entire book I kept thinking, "wow, Neil is holding back." At first I thought it was intended to be a children's novel, like the Graveyard Book, which is totally acceptable, but some topics and phrases seemed to complex for children. It wasn't until I read the afterward that I learn that this was intended to be a teaser for a television series. It makes sense now, but it is unfortunate that something with so much potential, is dumbed down for television. I love Neil Gaiman and all his works, but this is not one of his best. It would be good for young teens or early high schoolers who will love the meshing of science and magic that the authors weave in Interworld.

Love the action, science and magic

As someone who is into the thought of parallel worlds, this book was a great read.

Very entertaining

I’m a big fan of sci-fi and Neil Gaiman. The sandman is one of my favorite book because the story line is phenomenal!! I love Neil Gaiman’s ideas and concepts of time and gods. He has such a unique take on things that just keeps the reader intrigued. This book ties good writing, adventure and highly entertaining ideas together about parallel universes.

I thought this book was fantastic. I had a hard time putting the book down every night. The writing pulls you in and the story line keeps you reading and engaged. I immediately got the second book upon finishing this one and I’m looking forward to reading the series. Very well written story line and a phenomenal concept for the story. Would definitely recommend.
