I'm confused, is Adelaide the man dressed in black which people see before they disappear? Despite being a fan of paranormal, I'll pass on this one because I can't cope with any bulky novel now.

"Kaleidoscopic Shades" by David A. Neuman is an exciting book involving paranormal fiction and multi-dimensions. Einstein believed in multi-dimensions, other Earths and his thoughts about Time are somewhat puzzling. Bob Triplow is the main character that ran away with his family from Adelaide to Corona, CA where he thought he was safe from his past. In 2022 children in Corona began dreaming about a man dressed in black clothes. The dream started with Joshua Triplow and people started disappearing. Bob learned that to solve this problem he needed to return to Adelaide to stop this mystery man. Was Bob successful, did he save his friend Sammy? One must read the book to find out what happens. The official reviewer found the book hard to follow until half the book was read. I understand the 3 stars out of 4 rating. Very good review.

Books with intriguing storylines keep readers glued to them until the end. I can imagine how fascinating it would be to live in a world where time can be manipulated, as many would love to rewrite their mistakes. Another exciting aspect of the book is the opportunity to learn new English words.

I agree with your thoughts about intriguing storylines that keep readers glued to them until the end. My favorite type of story since I rarely stop reading a book before the ending.

I am not a fan of the paranormal genre so I will pass on reading this book but the storyline seems engaging enough. Had it not been for the paranormal entity, I would have like to read the story of Joshua and all the other characters mentioned and found out what it was that happened in Adelaide that caused them to flee.

Kaleidoscopic Shades

Books about paranormal activity is a book we all should read. Bob and his family moved in order to get away from the past and it seems to be catching up with him in some type of way. I want to read more about what happened.

This story depicts that running away from your post is not the solution. The past will always hunt you if you don't deal with it. Nice review!

I find the manipulation of time is intriguing to me hence I'm adding this paranormal fiction to my list of tbr. I also curious to what extent the time can be manipulated. So looking forward. 😍

The book has an interesting storyline and characters, but I'm not a fan of the genre, and the arrangement of the storyline puts me off. Thank you for the review.

"Kaleidoscopic Shades: Within Black Eternity" by David A. Neuman unfolds a paranormal fiction world where time manipulation and mysterious disappearances grip the storyline. The portrayal of love in the narrative, particularly Sue's unwavering affection for Bob despite his past, is one of the positive aspects found in the book. The book is also appreciated for using words that are easy to understand. Nice review.

Thanks for the review! I like books that have elements of the paranormal, like this one. I wonder about Bob Triplow and his family's past (if it's catching up to them), about the strange happenings in the present, and the mysterious man.

No matter how far you run away from trauma, it always has a way of catching up with you. A mysterious man in black sounds intriguing. I'm curious to know how all these people ended up disappearing.
