Science Fiction: Dark Matter By Blake Crouch

 
 (Drivebycuriosity) - Some physicists believe that there is not just our universe, they think there exists a multiverse with an infinite number of worlds. Some if these worlds are very similar to ours and others are very different - and there could be different versions of us.

Blake Crouch weaved these ideas into a science fiction thriller: "Dark Matter" (amazon). We follow a physicist, an expert in quantum mechanics, who is suddenly drawn into a chain of challenging situations. I won´t tell what is happening to him, this is a spoiler free blog, but the book is a real a page turner, at least parts of it. The novel has a lot action and is filled with obsession, love & family. But the author also nicely describes some quantum mechanic phenomena and elaborates some implications of the multiverse theory.  "Dark Matter" is a nice escape read.
