This topic is one of the most interesting in the theory of multiverses. What way our life would take if the decisions we make on each crossroads is different? ... great review! I would love to read this book

Stories about multiple dimensions are a slippery slope if the author doesn't know what he/she is doing. This doesn't seem to be the case with Worldliness, though. Talk about being both innocent and guilty of the same crime. Gary's story sounds every bit as mouth-watering as expected for any sci-fi lover.

The concept of living in a multiverse is new to me and I'll like to learn about it. I wonder how it would feel to connect to different parts of you in different worlds. Thanks for a concise review

In this story, a man named Gary has different versions of himself in different universe. One of them commits a murder, and Gary is forced to pay for it. However, he has no recollection of committing such a crime. Would you say he’s guilty? I have read this book a long time ago, and I remembered really enjoying it. Congrats on BOTD!

The review is well written and summarizes what to expect when reading the book. The story of Adam in different timelines is such a creative storyline. The book sounds interesting.

I enjoy reading a good science-fiction novel, and the multiple worlds timeline seems like a really interesting concept to explore. It's good to know that readers will be clear on which version of Gary we are reading about. Also, kudos to the author for having the book professionally edited! Thanks for the helpful review!

I've reviewed this! From all the books I've read in this site, this is my favorite so far. If you're into physics and alternative universe, this is for you. The plot and the way it was written is so cool. The ending is going to make you stare at your ceiling and contemplate life.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting science fiction novel following a man who committed a murder while he was lucidly dreaming, but it might be someone else controlling the man's body to commit those crimes. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

Your description of the premise of Worldlines is very interesting. I like the idea of a plot based on the Multiverse Theory, so I don't think the repetition of similar scenes with slightly different outcomes will bother me. I'm glad to hear that the book has been well edited!

I agree with liking the theory. When I read the book, the theory was what stuck out. Although, I did like reading the repetition to figure what exactly happened.

Science fiction with a fantasy twist - Worldlines sounds like the kind of mind-bending book that promises to intrigue. Though I'm not too excited about the repetition, I don't mind giving this book a try. Thanks for the great review!

The book sounds quite catching. The idea of different worldlines is very appealing, and the fact that one version of somebody can cross the lines into a parallel reality blows your mind. A very thorough review! Thank you.

Multiverses is big right now. It makes sense someone would write a book as well. It definitely sounds like it could get confusing at times. I am glad to see the author took the advice to get it edited again. Great review
