Parallels Kindle Edition

4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 17 ratings

Worlds Collide. Truth Unfolds. Adventure Awaits.

When brilliant physicist Professor Thomas Williams unveils his radical theory—that UFOs are remnants of an ancient parallel world—he ignites a firestorm. Determined to prove the impossible, Williams creates a way to traverse these worlds, defying the laws of quantum physics. But his discovery comes at a price.

As powerful enemies close in, Williams and his teenage son, Dan, are thrust into a perilous race for their lives. Separated from his father, Dan teams up with Rio, a daring and resourceful girl, and together they dive into a thrilling adventure across mind-bending dimensions. Each step brings them closer to uncovering a reality-altering truth—and deeper into danger.

Perfect for fans of gripping science fiction and heart-pounding adventures, this tale of courage, discovery, and survival will captivate readers of all ages.

“… heady reading packed with social, philosophical, and sci-fi investigative intrigue.”
D. Donovan, Sr. Reviewer, Midwest Book Review

Review

"What if UFOs are not aliens from outer space, but residents of a parallel universe? Parallels poses this and other ideas as it unfolds the certainty of physics professor Thomas Williams that not only are the visitors from a parallel universe, but their increased activity portends a dangerous dissolution of the boundaries separating these worlds.

In order to prove his theory, Thomas must develop a means of accessing them. When he and his son Dan find themselves on the wrong side of the law, and on the lam, they journey through these parallel places in search of answers to more than just UFO identity.

Each trip creates trials and discoveries that introduce new challenges, impossible ventures, and circumstances affecting not just their travels, but the future of their home world.

Kfir Luzzatto crafts an intriguing premise that departs from the usual sci-fi account of parallel universes and aliens to inject novel dilemmas and quandaries into these overlapping parallel worlds. The special interests that emerge on various levels threaten the fabric of time, space, and social institutions alike:
 
"...all our institutions are in danger. If this continues, complete chaos will ensue."

Intriguing alternative social constructs are just one of the facets that elevate
Parallels above and beyond similar-sounding explorations:
 
"You know that we must spend at least twenty percent of our income at the mall. If we can't produce receipts for at least that sum at the end of the month, we will be fined heavily and imprisoned if that repeats itself. Of course, all the money goes into the pockets of the tyrant who owns all the malls. They like to call it 'popular dedication to the economy.'"
 

Dan's ability to uncover the facts about these contrasting universes, and his struggles with "doubles" that exist in these parallel places, makes for heady reading packed with social, philosophical, and sci-fi investigative intrigue.

Between double agents and double crosses, Luzzatto builds his story on rich characters, unexpected events, and the progression of confrontations and realizations that lend a fast pace of inquiry and discovery to the story's sci-fi foundations.

Libraries seeking hard-hitting, compelling tales of alternative lives and parallel possibilities in sci-fi literature will welcome the power of
Parallels to draw readers with intrigue and mystery, as well as delightfully unexpected twists and turns of plot and place."

    Although I really like Mr Luzzatto's work, he truly outdid himself on this one. The concept is truly unique, and really makes you think about really lies just beyond your version of reality. Parallels deals with a truly wacko theory that one of the protagonist develops, and actually is more real than he or anyone else thinks. Are the truths of quantum physics real, or something else entirely. This is a novel that really makes you think, and when you look around after reading it, you may find yourself wondering about the true fabric of reality. I strongly recommend you buy the book and see for yourself what just might be the real world around you.

    Wonderful book that hooked me from the beginning. The two main characters are engaging and interesting. Never would have thought a cat would inspire interesting science fiction but it did and put out interesting thoughts. Author wove together a magical story and will be checking out more of his books.

    This novel is really different and an exciting adventure. I could scarcely put it down! I have always liked the idea of parallel worlds and this author does it justice. He must have an extremely creative mind to invent the variety of worlds we might find if we humans ever developed this technology. Would I even want this technology? Probably not!
