I've only read one other “kid's” book by Neil Gaiman and that was “The Graveyard Book.” I always thought that the only reason that book was classified as for children was because it had a child protagonist. The story was deep and could be enjoyed by adults. Interworld, on the other hand, was not. Not a bad book, just clearly meant for children and reminiscent of the Animorphs and Goosebumps books I would read as a kid. Don't expect any nuance.
Quick and fun read! Definitely a great YA scifi/fantasy novel by two great authors. Love the cover of this edition (although there are some spelling/grammar issues). Recommended to fans of all ages.
Chouette aventure, un peu décousue par moments, pas toujours facile à suivre, mais un bon moment à travers la physique quantique et les univers parallèles, le tout saupoudré d'une dose d'absurde et de beaucoup d'imagination.
Maybe because InterWorld wasn't written by Gaiman alone, but in a collaboration with Michael Reaves, I can't help feeling it would've been better executed as the animated something they wanted at first. This doesn't read like a Neil Gaiman novel. It's very YA-ish (middle grade, even?), and I can picture my younger self enjoying it very much, but I've read my fair share of Gaiman stuff over the years, and I felt let down by this one.
It is what it is: your average teen fantasy/sci-fi adventure story.
