He never considered writing one before, though-at least not until Jeffy, Amity, and the possibility of finding the missing person of their lives popped into his head. Koontz says he enjoyed such stories, but often wished they could be a bit less over-the-top and focused more on real-world content. Stories about parallel worlds have been around for a long time-ever since Hugh Everett, a physicist from Princeton, first posited the existence of a multiverse in 1957. But another man with a dark purpose is determined to use the device’s grand potential for profound evil. But that façade shatters when a homeless person they refer to as Spooky Ed gives them a device that changes how they see life forevermore.Īnd when they accidentally discover that the mysterious object is a key to travel across parallel universes, they can’t help but wonder about finding Michelle in one of those places. In New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz’s new novel ELSEWHERE, Jeffy Coltrane works hard to maintain a normal life for his daughter, Amity, after the disappearance of his wife, Michelle, seven years prior.

The fantastic works of Dean Koontz are sure to satisfy anyone who’s a fan of suspenseful thrillers, horror, and sci-fi/fantasy.Parallel Universes, Lost Loved Ones, and Evil Forces This disturbing and imaginative twisted love story was the first of its kind in horror/sci-fi, and also inspired a movie starring Julie Christie. Then, he would inhabit the offspring with his own consciousness. And the solution for “him” to do this is to impregnate Susan with his spawn, which he biologically engineered.
