Parallel: The Secret Life of Jordan McKay (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

Bestselling Fantasy Author Abra Ebner takes a stab at Sci-Fi! When six year old Jordan McKay dreams, he dreams big. Sitting in the park one day eating a popsicle, Jordan is suddenly launched into the future he had been manifesting in his mind. Finding himself lost and alone, he is shocked that he'd finally dreamed hard enough to make it come true. Found on the other side by a woman, she works to help bring him home, touching his soul in a way he will never forget. After dreaming himself back he learns to control this new talent, never forgetting what the woman had done for him and vowing to return the favor, even if it meant sacrificing his own life to do so. Now bound to Jordan by fate, Kenzie Ashcroft finds her life riddled with bad dreams. Every night when Kenzie falls asleep, she wakes up to a parallel life where things are not only normal, but are eerily real. Struggling to keep the two worlds straight, she grows up wondering how this happened to her and why, wondering who the shadow of a man growing up beside her really is. Thinking life is wonderful, Jordan begins changing Kenzie's fate, giving her everything she ever wanted and making her the woman he always thought she was meant to be. As he delves deeper into his web of time and space, however, fate sends him a curve ball and he finds that he is not alone. Followed by a girl with turquoise eyes and skin cold as death, he struggles to learn who she is, what she does, and why she is here. As he gets to know this strange girl in the hopes of learning more about himself, Jordan finds that what he thought was the right thing was not in the end. In a desperate attempt to take back the wrongs he thought were right, Jordan takes the leap to trust the strange girl. It is then that Jordan's world begins to fall apart, or does it?Parallel begs to challenge the notion of luck and the idea that no matter what you do to force change, you cannot hope to change fate.
