Summary
'Are you happy in your life?'
Those are the last words Jason Dessen hears before the masked abductor knocks him unconscious. Before he wakes to find himself strapped to a gurney, surrounded by strangers in hazmat suits. Before the man he's never met smiles down at him and says, 'Welcome back, my friend.'
In this world he's woken up to, Jason's life is not the one he knows. His wife is not his wife. His son was never born. And Jason is not an ordinary college physics professor but a celebrated genius who has achieved something remarkable. Something impossible.
Is it this world or the other that's the dream? And even if the home he remembers is real, how can Jason possibly make it back to the family he loves? The answers lie in a journey more wondrous and horrifying than anything he could've imagined - one that will force him to confront the darkest parts of himself even as he battles a terrifying, seemingly unbeatable foe.
From the author of the best-selling Wayward Pines trilogy, Dark Matter is a brilliantly plotted tale that is at once sweeping and intimate, mind-bendingly strange and profoundly human - a relentlessly surprising thriller about choices, paths not taken, and how far we'll go to claim the lives we dream of.

gripping, fast paced, extremely enjoyable
This was the first book I have listened to by Blake Crouch. I am very impressed. It had me hooked from the start, and kept me looking forward to the next installment.
Jon Lindstrom is an excellent narrator - so good that I have actively sought out other books based on him narrating.
The characters in the book really come alive and you can feel a connection with them.
The story line was superb and threw a quantity of 'curve balls', keeping you on your toes.
I found it a little too intense to listen to before bed as it really keeps the adrenaline flowing!
Now enjoying one of Blake's other books 'Pines'.

mostly good
i did enjoy this book. it begins well, and the last quarter is very good. There's a chunk in the middle that's mediochre sci-fi, but it sort of has to be there. Switch off, enjoy the story.

You sort of guess where this is going
Well read and moves along at a good pace. For me the story was a little predictable and lacked that edge but was strong enough to be an enjoyable experience.

Dark Matter
I bought this book on a whim, not having read anything by this author before or by the narrator. I have not been disappointed. The story line is fast and exciting and the science behind it fascinating. Mr Crouch has written an excellent book which has been brought to life by Jon Lindstroms very emotive narration. Together they have produced an exceptional audio book, one that I will listen to again. If you are looking for something a little different you could not find a better book.

Unexpected ending
So the actual story is good but not too far off from other books/tv shows/movies. However, there are quite a few twists and turns and the ending was unexpected for me.
Narration decent, not annoying and not monotone.
First Blake Crouch book and will be getting more!
