The World House

This book is pretty cool and twisted. A selection of characters (taken from various points in time as well) come across an odd little box. Once they start fiddling with the box, they find themselves suddenly transported to a room in a very odd house. The house defies logic, has endless corridors, and contains all manner of deadly things within. The story follows these small groups of house travelers as they A) try to stay alive, and B) try to get back home. The journey is a bit of a page-turning romp but the ending leaves some unanswered questions and loose strings. No matter. The sequel, Restoration, comes out in July and I'll be snapping it up at the first opportunity.
