DESCRIPTION:
From the author of the best-selling Wayward Pines trilogy, Dark Matter is a brilliantly plotted tale that is at once sweeping and intimate, mind-bendingly strange and profoundly human - a relentlessly surprising science-fiction thriller about choices, paths not taken, and how far we'll go to claim the lives we dream of.. Is it this world or the other that's the dream? And even if the home he remembers is real, how can Jason possibly make it back to the family he loves? The answers lie in a journey more wondrous and horrifying than anything he could've imagined - one that will force him to confront the darkest parts of himself even as he battles a terrifying, seemingly unbea
A compelling and mind-bending love story Rene H As you look back on your life, do you see forks in the road - clear points in time where you made a decision and left another possible life behind?

Deedi Brown said An easy read and a captivating story. This was an engaging, fast-paced book that kept me not quite on the edge of my seat, but certainly far from resting comfortably back in it. There weren't really any slow moments, and I was always eager to see what would happen next. It was a quick read without feeling shallow, and I truly enjoyed it.I also found this book to be less predictable than I had originally assumed it would be, which was a pleasant surprise—although I think I still would have enjoyed the story eve. Good Start - Not so Good Finish Insight1001 Dark Matter starts out like a house on fire. Blake Crouch immediately creates a wonderful page-turner adventure.

I give the first half four stars and the second half one star.
