Why read it?
1 author picked The Nowhere Thief as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Though it never mentions the word ‘multiverse’, it has many aspects of a story about travelling through worlds beyond worlds, going somewhere from nowhere, taking things that don’t exist in another place.
