Very fascinating fantasy novel that capitalizes on story travel through novels spanning centuries. The main character’s family is a conglomeration of various book characters that traverse between their own stories and the present. I think the format lends itself to a boundless setting and timeline - and as such the author can definitely take us on a whirlwind of action, narrative and emotion. The overall feel is a blend of Wrinkle in Time, Inkheart and Magic Tree House. I actually enjoyed the ride it took me in, but I am not sure yet if I am attached to Rafe (the key character) enough to commit myself to the rest of a possible series. As far as writing and editing, I give this book 5 stars.
