Pleasantly surprised! Was not expecting to like this book after it turned out to be a Sci-Fi thriller. It’s better of classified as Sci-Fi with the sub-genre as thriller, instead of vice versa. It’s for the readers who love anything remotely similar to Inception or The Matrix.
The main question the protagonist (Jason) has about who kidnapped him (& why) can easily be predicted by chapter 4 at most. However, what made this story great was the second half of the book. As Jason figures out a way to get back to the life he knew, the author leaves a bit of uncertainty to keep the reader guessing if that will really happen. The fast-pace of the second-half really saved this book from being drawn out and at times the scientific facts were not that easy to grasp, but....considering the topic is quantum physics that’s expected . I do think the ending could have been made better if.....there was more uncertainty left, and it wasn’t exactly sure if they (“original” Jason and his family) got their happy ending. I thought the author would end it with one of the multiverse Jason’s finding one of the ampoules that “original” Jason had left behind in the hotel when he was trying to escape from a multiverse Jason. Indicating that the multiverse Jason could have followed “original” Jason and a had 1/♾ chance of ending up in the same world.
