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.

Quotes

  • “Christopher Evan Welch voices a cadre of diverse characters: an evil guard, a benevolent teacher, a robotic pal, a gentle infant, and a crusty mentor. Joey’s journey is one of friendship, and Welch aptly depicts his generous spirit as Joey meets the story’s various characters. Welch makes the story come alive in every dimension.”

  • “A mind-stretching ride for which all tweens and teens (and many adults) will be grateful.”

    — VOYA (starred review)
  • “Vivid, well-imagined settings and characters.”

    — Booklist
  • “What InterWorld gets exactly right…[is] the all-too-real childhood fear that if we're away from comfortable surroundings for too long, our families and loved ones might eventually forget who we are, and that someday we might never be able to return…[InterWorld's] purpose is not to dispel this fear for its readers, but rather to provide them with irresistible incentive to take those tentative first steps into unpredictable worlds beyond.”

    " I loved the introduction of the TimeWatch to accompany InterWorld in protecting the multiverse. But I wish that a bit more had been done with that part of the story and that the ending wasn't so obviously left open as "to be continued" the next book in this series. "

    " not as enjoyable as the first one slowly plods along for the first two thirds only to pick up the pace and leave you hanging with no resolution at the end "

    " Decent teen book. Seems like it should be the opening of a series that never happened. "

    " This was a neat book. It is worth your time...maybe not so much your money. It is a bit of a used idea but has a couple of new elements. It has a very likable character and there is some pretty good writing stuck here and there. "

    " Kind of a young-adult sci-fi novel, I guess. Not one of Gaiman's best but still worth reading. "

    " I think any teenager (or older person who still resembles one in spirit) would enjoy this exciting science fiction action story. It reminded me a lot of the Robert A. Heinlein sci-fi novels for teens that I read in my youth. "

    " Agak males2an baca, gak tau terjemahannya yg ga enak apa emang cerita aslinya yg jelek. Konsep alternate reality sih salah satu konsep yg menarik banget buat diceritain, tapi entah kenapa ceritanya kok ga sesuai ekspektasi ya... "
