The Number of the Beast by Robert A. Heinlein
Dr. Zebadiah John Carter, Dr. Dejah Thoris Burroughs (Deety to her friends), Deety's brainiac father, Jake, and her "Aunt" Hilda are running off to Reno for a quickie double wedding when a car bomb narrowly misses killing them all. But, what makes this bantering bunch so special isn't money or politics or jealous exes but the one-of-a-kind machine Jake has built in his basement. Jake has made an awesome quantum breakthrough-a simple invention that allows access to all the universes-and a race of blue-skinned, green-blooded bad guys are determined to grab the gadget for themselves. Plugging the world-skipper into Gay Deceiver, Zeb's trusty flying coupe, the lusty foursome set off on a rollicking roller coaster ride to other space-time continuums, determined to evade and destroy the Black Hats who want them vaporized. And that's when the fun really begins....
