Hmm. I finished the book, and my first thought was: what just happened?

Anyway, this is a very short book. Read it for the atmosphere and general feeling of the characters. The characters feel real and interesting, like someone you'd like to meet. The atmosphere is every so slightly mystical. The writing is well-done. But its main weakness is that the plot is spare, and the book ends abruptly, too abruptly, with only a partial resolution. Overall, in keeping with MacAvoy's other work, but a bit more experimental. (

Odd but engaging little book. It's a lovely little fantasy though it's full of bloody deaths. It's a Buddhist parable and a mystery and a meditation on what's worth saving. It's goofy and sweet and funny, but underneath all of that runs a core of sincerity that keeps it from being a throw-away fable. I liked it better than anything of MacAvoy's since [b:Tea With the Black Dragon|435415|Tea With the Black Dragon|R.A. MacAvoy|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174755599s/435415.jpg|1261690]. (

Ewen Young is an artist with more than one gift. When his uncle is killed and Ewen is badly injured, he finds himself In Between. Despite what could have been a thriller plot, this is mostly a fairly gentle character study.

Slight--novella length at best--but enjoyable. (
