" This one started a little slow for me, but I'm so very glad I stuck with it. It has such a payoff at the end (and really, by about page 50 I was being sucked into its spell). It felt like a long study of Story (the shadows of stories, the myths, the fables, the slippery truths), and it was definitely an odyssey story. So many wonderful possibilities open up at the end. I'll be thinking about this book for a long time to come. Marvelous. "
