As usual, [a:Dean Koontz|9355|Dean Koontz|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1581963714p2/9355.jpg] does not disappoint. His novel, [b:Elsewhere|52737437|Elsewhere|Dean Koontz|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1593381387l/52737437._SX50_.jpg|78697738], a father/daughter adventure, takes us to places familiar, but not quite, with adventures similar to other adventures, but not quite, and an ending quite different than Mr. Koontz's usual endings. If you are a Dean Koontz fan you will truly enjoy this journey to times and places we can only hope stay in our imagination.

I liked the characters but there were too many instances where they seemed to choose the worst decision possible only to bring them into deeper trouble every time.

Amity is a beautifully clever girl and I love her. But man, I could have lived without Falkirk's POV. It was just so much misery.

This is another book covering the quantum alternate/parallel universes topic that has been a hot theme of late (having also recently completed reading Dark Matter by Blake Crouch). While the action is non-stop I found the characters and set pieces somewhat irritating at times. This story swirled around a near perfect father, with the silly name of Jeffy, and his near perfect pre-teen daughter Amity. After the quirky "homeless" Ed leaves a mysterious package with Jeffy, telling him to never open it but keep it hidden and safe for a year, things soon spiral out of control. Jeffy and Amity will soon find themselves pursued by Deep State thugs, looking for Ed and the device contained in the mysterious package. Forced to use the device, Jeffy and Amity soon learn that other versions of their reality exist, most of them far more bizarre and dangerous than their home reality. While confronting one dangerous situation after another, Amity still looks to replace the mother that abandoned her and her father, Michelle, with another, better version. They must find help along the way in order to stay alive and reach a safe haven in a new reality.
