Elsewhere by Dean Koontz
2.0
I have previously enjoyed Koontz novels but unfortunately this one fell flat. The premise was amazing, but the execution was full of lengthy exposition and drawn-out conflict that felt exaggerated and inflated.
For a novel about traveling to other parallel dimensions, I felt like we didn't see a lot of other worlds and that overall not much really happened in the novel. The bad guy was comically bad and way too long-winded. All of the companions of the main characters were conveniently super-competent in a way that felt forced. I felt like this had good bones but needed to be expanded on and trimmed in other places as to not be so repetitive.
