I read Neil Gaiman and Michael Reaves’ InterWorld back before I started blogging, and I loved its sci-fi plot. Its tone reminded me a bit of a grim Diana Wynne Jones – with a full measure of inventiveness, a couple of unreliable characters, mystery and worlds unknown. I packed that book up when I moved across the country, and I haven’t read it since. When I went through the spring YA catalogs I was surprised and pleased to see a sequel is on its way. The Silver Dream: An InterWorld Novel by Neil Gaiman and Michael Reaves will be released by HarperTeen on April 23, 2013.
The sequel to the New York Times bestselling fantasy adventure InterWorld, from award-winning and bestselling team Neil Gaiman and Michael Reaves.
Sixteen-year-old Joey Harker has just saved the Altiverse-the dimension that contains all the myriad Earths-from complete destruction. After mastering the ability to walk between dimensions, Joey and his fellow InterWorld Freedom Fighters are on a mission to maintain peace between the rival powers of magic and science who seek to control all worlds.
When a stranger named Acacia somehow follows Joey back to InterWorld's Base, things get complicated. No one knows who she is or where she's from-or how she knows so much about InterWorld. Dangerous times lie ahead, and Joey has no one to rely on but himself and his wits-and, just maybe, the mysterious Acacia Jones.
Full of riveting interdimensional battles, epic journeys between worlds, and twists and turns along the way, this sequel to InterWorld is a thrilling, mind-bending adventure through time and space.

The only thing I don't like about this title is that the attribution is misleading - Neil Gaiman had basically nothing to do with it. (I'm sure it will still be great . . . but of course he's the famous guy so his name still gets top billing.)
Sounds fascinating...thanks for sharing.
Here's MY WOW POST
Sounds exciting and a little like we might get a romance.
I haven't read Interworld yet but since this is Neil Gaiman, I am sure this would be AMAZING.
I still need to read Interworld, but that's great there is a sequel coming out. I need to read more by Gaiman in general. All I've read (so far) are a couple of his graphic novels...those are great. :)
I haven't heard of this series! MUST get my hands on the first book!
