Interworld, by Neil Gaiman and Michael Reeves (Eos, 2007)

Joey Harker always thought he had bad direction sense. However, when he takes a wrong turn and ends up in another dimension altogether, he soon discovers that he’s capable of walking between alternate worlds, and finding home may be impossible. Soon, he’s caught up in a war between science and magic, a conflict raging across an infinite variety of alternate Earths, and his only hope lies in allying with a very peculiar organization that fights against both sides. And this is just the start of a wild, wonderful, epic adventure that bounces with glee from one reality to the next. Gaiman and Reeves originally conceived this story for television, but it’s translated to book form quite nicely. Interworld’s a great deal of fun, building on some brilliant concepts, and I’m hoping we’ll see more along these lines soon.
