Wow, so interesting! I have been telling lots of people about this book. It's one of those that kind of messes with your brain and you start thinking, "What if this is true?" Matrix-y, if that's a word or adjective. So, this guy has a lovely life- loving husband, great kid, family movie nights, the whole nine yards. Then he's kidnapped and sent to an alternate world created by him, but with different choices. And he is desperately trying to get back. Not only was Dark Matter a great plot, but I think it had some pretty good themes as well- love, what constitutes a successful life, how our choices dictate what happens to us (sometimes). Well written, good action, and fairly thought-provoking. I may have to join the Blake Crouch fan club. If there is one. Or wait, maybe I did in an alternate world...
