Publisher's Summary

'Are you happy in your life?'

Those are the last words Jason Dessen hears before the masked abductor knocks him unconscious. Before he wakes to find himself strapped to a gurney, surrounded by strangers in hazmat suits. Before the man he's never met smiles down at him and says, 'Welcome back, my friend.'

In this world he's woken up to, Jason's life is not the one he knows. His wife is not his wife. His son was never born. And Jason is not an ordinary college physics professor but a celebrated genius who has achieved something remarkable. Something impossible.

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 unbeatable foe.

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 thriller about choices, paths not taken, and how far we'll go to claim the lives we dream of.

Unexpected awesome Horror

This has been an amazing listen. Never experienced like it before. A Great mixture of science fiction and horror. Smooth narration helps it very much. Looking forward to the sequel.

in the begining it didn't quite add up and sounded dull but slowly slowly it grasps you in a amazing journey of life where every decision take you on a different journey.

Great story, wish narration was better

Amazing story, a bit cheesy at times but mostly great sci-fi. Narration is average and could have been better.

Great concept, flawed execution

A brilliant concept. The story also does quite well in exploring the repercussions of travelling through the multiverse, and asks difficult questions about identity. However, it dives far too deep into the technicalities of the world, making it tedious at times to follow the story, but then, comfortably ignores the rules of the world in favour of story. Giving one extra star for a great second half.

Always excited to know about multiverse.

Nice story, I liked the way it is narrated. multiverse is always a curiosity and this book has took me to a different imagination. not very sure about the end sequence but other wise nice fiction.
it could have been more exciting if author would have pen down scientific detailing in the story which was completely missed out.

The consequences and power of choices, so beautifully woven into a sci-fi tale!

Couldn’t put this one down. What a tale. One of the best fictions I have read. And yet so powerfully real.
