As someone who thoroughly enjoyed Michael Crichton's fast-paced, action-packed blend of science and humanity, I was eager to delve into this book that seemed like it could be similar. And it is similar, though doesn't quite reach the depth I loved in Crichton's books.

I really liked this novel. It was a little slow-going and predictable at first, but as soon as it hits one point in the book where our protagonist Jason is running through an infinity corridor trying to find his world in the multiverse--I was hooked. Crouch does a really good job of explaining the science to the reader through his characters. At points during reading I was making remarks to my husband about game theory and how I had no clue how Crouch was going to resolve this story. I was surprised by and loved the ending. I got a little misty when I closed the book.

For a fast-paced thriller, it gives you a lot to think about in terms of the world, your life, the decisions you make in your life... love books like this.
