In general relativity, time varies in relation to speed ,therefore , it can be assumed that each dimension or reality, is moving at a different speed in relation to each other. Some faster; some slower. So, not really a paradox.

Only most realities still experience time at the same/similar rate even though they are at different places in the timeline, with the most notable difference being in the Tor reality, where time progresses at I think it was 8 times faster than the rest.
But this could also be a difference in the time constant in their reality compared to the other ones we know, not just that it's 'location' in the Void between worlds progresses or moves faster than the others.

In an infinite multiverse of infinite universes(/realities) everything exists an infinite number of times. For every works of fiction you've ever read, seen, or heard, there exists an infinite number of universes in P.S. Powers multiverse where the described events have happened, are happening, or will happen.
As such, no further explanation is needed for why the specific realities described in the books exist in the described state. The only thing you can wonder about is why Dale is writing about these specific grouping of interacting realities and not one of the infinite other existing groupings of of realities.

I don't think that first part is correct. In the YA storyline there are aliens from other worlds, all who have seen the enemies who want to destroy reality, people of their kind. Events are told from Earth, mostly because we live there I'd imagine.
I also don't think realities share stars or matter, or anything like that. Not sure how that would even work.
Again, the YA people have been to other stars.

Ahh, got it. You think the aliens could just be another reality. But that doesn't quite ring true either. They don't just walk from reality to reality through a changing landscape like you're suggesting, otherwise normal humans would be doing it all the time, they do it through naturally occurring gates with a strict delineation of realties between one step and another. Think of it like a shortcut through to another reality instead of between Zack's house and the mall, but one that is naturally there instead of created by a line walker. I suppose the aliens could have found a space gate, but there is nothing in the books themselves to indicate that is true.
Either way, you made me think. You could be right, if some of the stars in the sky are seen through a natural gate occurring in space, but there is nothing to indicate that possibility in the books.
