Bohaterem powieści jest Joey Harker, który potrafi zgubić się dosłownie wszędzie, nawet we własnym domu. Przyznam, że od razu poczułam do niego sympatię, bo sama się często gubię. Pewnego razu jednak Joey zgubił się naprawdę. W jednej chwili był pod sklepem, a w drugiej stał pod tak samo wyglądający...
What I would give to have an imagination like these authors. How the hell do they come up with this stuff? And how do they make enough sense of the craziness to write such a compelling novel? Crazy and brilliant! But don't bother reading it if big words or weird worlds scare you.
What a wonderful surprise! I LOVED this book! I can't believe that I've waited this long to read this one, after all this is product of a great partnership (Gaiman and Pratchett!). I vaguely remembered The Time Traveler's Wife when I started it. But wait, it's not quite. While this has an element of...
The concept is brilliant: Joey Harker finds that he's capable of walking between worlds, alternate realities of every variety, from the fully magical to the fully technological to everything in between.

Walking between worlds is usually a fun premise, and these guys give it a nice twist. Best handling of multi-dimensional space in a book for middle readers ever. Yeah, that's the kind of geek I am. Highly recommended.
A thin offering from Gaiman (of whom I expect better) and Reaves (with whose work I'm not familiar). It's reminiscent of a second-tier Heinlein juvenile novel, down to the "Old Man" who is revered by all and for whose mission everyone would sacrifice to carry out. The plot is enjoyable enough, thou...
I read a review somewhere that told me to check this out of the library instead of buying it, even if I super hearted Neil Gaiman. It was excellent advice, and I humbly thank the Minneapolis Public Library for the use of their book. Anyway, the prologue told me what I should have known: this story w...
