Official Review: The Futility of Vengeance by Adam Guest

[Priyanshi Sharma 2]

This book is not something I would have read by myself. But, reading your review has made me interested to learn more about Michelle and Gary's life. Thanks for addressing it so thoroughly!

This sounds like a great thriller sequel. I have not read the first book but will check it out. Congrats on the book of the day! Great review.

I like an engaging detective novel. I look forward to reading it. Great review.

This is a very interesting development to the multiverse/dreamwalking storyline. I can’t imagine anyone would be content just sitting back in a situation like this, but getting revenge on someone who’s essentially another version of yourself seems as fruitless and headache-inducing as framing a version of yourself in the first place. I’ll definitely check this out after I read the first one. Thank you for the helpful review.

I think that by the very nature of the storyline, it is inevitable that there is going to be a good measure of repetition. However, in spite of this aspect, it does seem like a very interesting idea. This looks like a book to keep in mind for sure. Thanks for the review.

I love reading Adam Quest's books. He's a class in crime thrillers. Now, I want to read this one.

This story becomes more interesting as Gary's life gets complicated. I have always found the Many Worlds intriguing so I'm glad it's being expanded more. Congrats on BOTD!

The idea of jumping through timelines while lucid dreaming is fascinating. I haven't read the first book yet. But this sequel sure sounds interesting.
Thanks for this amazing review

Being in prison for a crime you did not commit sounds awful. However, in this case, he was possessed by his doppelganger who committed the crime. In the eyes of the law and common sense, he did it. I am curious to see how the author resolves this particular conundrum.

I love Gary's courage in seeking justice for Michelle. I'd love to know if he was able to find justice for her at last. Great review.

I read the first book in this series, and I would like to read this melodramatic sequel to Worldlines. I would want to know more about the life of Gary after his trial. Congrats on the BOTD!

[Praise GodWord]

The plotline was very captivating. But I wish the part of repetition would be corrected. Great crime fiction by Adam.

After the unjust incarceration of Gary Jackson for the murder of Michelle, Gary vowed to seek justice for Michelle. He felt the real perpetrator of the murder needed to atone for his sin. The Futility of Vengeance by Adam Guest, a melodramatic sequel to Worldlines, engages the readers in the life of Gary after his trial, how he has been coping with paying for a crime he didn’t commit. How would he be able to get justice for Michelle while he’s still in prison?

Everyone but Gary and Sinead has come to terms with accepting that Michelle was murdered in cold blood by Gary at Sinead’s birthday party. Maybe it’s because they are yet to fully understand the possibility of one to be possessed by his doppelganger from another timeline through lucid dreaming. Gary’s prison experience didn’t seem to make his condition favourable. It’s either he was avoiding petty attacks from other prisoners, or he was mulling over the banters that he received for denying killing his girlfriend. Since the ‘Many Worlds’ postulate supports every outcome to every scenario, most other Garys were living their normal lives without experiencing either the death of Michelle or the jail term that he was serving. After numerous attempts at lucid dreaming, Gary finally gets hold of whom he believed to be the murderer and attempts a spiteful act on him.

Wrongful conviction and imprisonment is a scary thought but we know it has happened to thousands of people around the world. Everyone but Gary and Sinead have come to terms with accepting that Michelle was murdered by Gary at Sinead's birthday party but they are yet to fully understand the possibility of one to be possessed by his doppelganger from another timeline through lucid dreaming. This type of story reminds me of The Twilight Zone. Good official review.

I am pleased to know that there is a sequel to Worldlines, a continuation of Michelle's murder case. Will book two reveal the real perpetrator? Will Gary remain in prison as the perpetrator of Michelle's murder? I will read the book to find out. Congratulations on being the BOTD.

I read the first Worldlines novel and was really impressed - happy to see that there was a sequel! Unfortunately, I think repetition is inevitable given the nature of the story. Thanks for the great review!
