Del is a Walker, which means she can cross
dimensions, and she has fallen in love with Simon, a half-Walker who is causing
rifts in the real world. Del cleaves
Simon into an echo in the hopes of protecting him from the Walker leaders who
want to preserve only the real world and cleave all the other dimensions, which
would kill the echo people there. But
when she is separated from Simon, she realizes that she doesn’t want to live
without him and that the other Walkers need to know that the echoes are real
people too even if they don’t exist in the same dimension. Del takes on the Walker leaders while searching
among the dimensions for Simon and she finds herself in the middle of a
war.
This is a sequel to the first book
in the series. The world is creative and
the author brings the reader along the different dimensions effortlessly. The characters are interesting and the world
is fascinating because it feels like it could be read, but at times the story line
is bogged down with too much detail. The ending also didn't have enough resolve.
