Review by victorokothcads -- Worldlines by Adam Guest
[Following is a volunteer review of "Worldlines" by Adam Guest.]
Worldlines by Adam Guest is a book about the existence of different Worldlines that affect people’s lives. Gary lives in four Worldlines: a Blue Line with Michelle, whom he killed, a Black Line with Sinead, a Red Line they are all alive, and solving a lucid dream, and a Green Line where he was found innocent for Michelle’s murder.
In the Blue Line, Gary narrowly escaped an accident by a lorry; later on, he went with Michele for a holiday, where they were involved in an accident while skiing. Before Gary and his sibling were born, his father was in prison. Gary killed Michelle in a dream, and Betsy became Gary’s solicitor after reading her request letter from another Worldline. Gary was found guilty here but not guilty in the Green Line. In the Black Line, Gary leaves with Sinead after being hit by a lorry. Mary, Sinead’s mother, suffered dementia and was hospitalized. Gary dreamt he had stubbed Michelle to death. Coincidentally, Mary told him the same incident. Prof. Buzzard tried to explain the coincidence.
My favorite part is the protective measures Sinead’s mother took on Sinead. She strongly opposes sex before marriage. Therefore, she didn’t allow Sinead and Gary to sleep together. I also love how Sinead advised Gary to make up with his family. It’s funny that Sinead changes in the bathroom while sharing a bed with Gary.
There are unnecessary repetitions. I didn’t understand the logic of copy-paste to describe some places like a pub on two different pages 20 and 127 with these words “The wooden floors were sticky, most of the tables wobbled, this room had a couple of ceiling tile missing and the walls were still painted Artex.”
I have a different opinion on too much time given to Prof. Buzzard to question Mr. Jackson and Miss O’Brien from page 7 to 14, which appear like cross-examination in a law court. Additionally, the inhumane expression of Gary, who wanted Mary, his mother-in-law to be, not to have fast recovery from illness. Not to mention his disrespect to his father by calling him a moron in the presence of his mother.
I recommend the book to Quantum theory and Quantum Immortality scientists. It is also suitable for young adults in a relationship; there are love scenes. Any person who enjoys fantasy novels can also love reading it. The twists in Gary's life is exceptional.
I rate the book 4 out of 4, as Mr. Guest’s style of describing events in the book is extraordinary. The coordination of some events happening simultaneously in Gary’s Worldlines was fantastic, and in each worldline, he has an unsolved issue. The book has few errors.
