Book description
There is not just one you, there are many yous. We're part of a
multiplicity of universes in parallel dimensions - and Tejendra Singh
has found a way in.
But he's been kidnapped, and now it is as though Tejendra never
existed. Yet there is one clue for his son, Everett, to follow: a
mysterious app, the Infundibulum.
The app is a map, not just to the Ten Known Worlds, but to the entire
multiverse - and there are those who want to get their hands on it
very badly. If Everett's going to keep it safe and rescue his father,
he's going to need friends: like Captain Anastasia Sixsmyth, her
adopted daughter, Sen, and the crew of the airship Everness.

well as a wicked sense of humour. This first volume of the Everness

this one stand out' Kirkus Reviews.
