In fact, he's the kind of guy who gets lost in his own house. But then one day, Joey gets really lost. He walks straight out of his world and into another dimension.
Joey's walk between the worlds makes him prey to two terrible forces—armies of magic and science who will do anything to harness his power to travel between dimensions. When he sees the evil those forces are capable of, Joey makes the only possible choice: to join an army of his own, an army of versions of himself from different dimensions who all share his amazing power and who are all determined to fight to save the worlds.
Master storyteller Neil Gaiman and Emmy Award-winning science-fiction writer Michael Reaves team up to create a dazzling tale of magic, science, honor, and the destiny of one very special boy—and all the others like him.
Joey goes for a walk, and a whole new world opens up when he steps into another dimension. He must learn about his dual destinies while getting to know a new world whose inhabitants believe in science or magic. And he has to fight evil when some of those inhabitants want to harness his special powers. As Joey moves between worlds, Christopher Evan Welch voices a cadre of diverse characters: an evil guard, a benevolent teacher, a robotic pal, a gentle infant, and a crusty mentor. Joey's journey is one of friendship, and Welch aptly depicts his generous spirit as Joey meets the story's various characters. Welch makes the story come alive in every dimension. M.B.
