Line 109:
* The Quantum Enchantment trilogy and its sequel by Kim Falconer uses the 'many-worlds' concept as a plot device. Working from memory, there is a dystopian Earth a few hundred years in the future, and a completely separate world where magic and the like are common place. Throughout the series, the characters manage to get themselves lost in the 'corridors' between the worlds, often returning to what would be their home but for some sort of twist- a battle was won instead of lost, time flows in a different direction, person X never existed. It gets somewhat confusing after a while.
* [[Vasili Golovachov]]'s ''The Saviors of the Fan'' duology (made up of ''The Envoy'' and ''The Deliverer'') has a myriad parallel worlds some of which are similar to ours, while others vary wildly. And that's just those organized into a linked structure called the Worldfan, of which our world is a part, with the implication that there are countless other worlds. According to the protagonist's half-Japanese friend, some of these worlds may be familiar from folk tales or science fiction/fantasy novels, as information has a tendency to "leak" between the worlds, meaning all those stories are actually true in other worlds. There is a world where the mere act of moving alters the surrounding reality, or a world made up of a gigantic tree.
* The Crystal-verse series by Vladislav Krapivin. "Great Crystal" being the model of Multiverse most commonly used by those interested in such matters.
