Not even the main character who tells the stories. But also, rather than names, everyone has a title: The Librarian, the Gatekeeper, the Grandfather. And yet, the things they ordered at the Italian restaurant were all meticulously listed in Italian, and the description of eating food throughout is a minor focus. Musical artists, books, songs, all are listed like pointless name-dropping.
In all, I will likely keep images in my head of things described in this book for many weeks. Seems peaceful, but would it be satisfactory? This mixture of familiar and surreal creates a neat nestling of fluffy cupcakes of magic in a solid baking-pan of reality.
There is some magical psychological reference to the mind and the quality of person one can be with or without the mind, the quality of life one can live by using it or not using it. Apr 10, Jake Jarvi rated it really liked it. A really great YA novel that has good-hearted characters at it's center who not only keep us involved in their adventure, but serve as great examples of fully engaging with your community and those around you.
I had a hard time at first because so many people are introduced at that first meeting and I couldn't keep everyone straight. Once it started following Hickory and getting into his and his dad's relationship with Before, it was really great.
I couldn't wait to find out more about the Eidol A really great YA novel that has good-hearted characters at it's center who not only keep us involved in their adventure, but serve as great examples of fully engaging with your community and those around you. I couldn't wait to find out more about the Eidolon and what influence she would have on the unfolding of events. I loved Hickory and Abacus and Quantum.
I thought the building excitement about the Before was really great. Really fantastic relationships and personal moments. All of the relationships between the characters and the way they interacted was really great. The only thing is that if someone didn't know this was the first book of a trilogy, they'd think the ending came out of nowhere.
It felt very abrupt and didn't resolve any of the story lines. It feels like the end of a chapter instead of the end of the book. Since I already have books two and three, it's like--No worries, crack open the next one. But if I thought it was a stand alone book, I'd be like--What?
On to book two! Apr 27, Kerry rated it really liked it Shelves: This story was an interesting take on a post-apocalyptic world. It left more questions than answers, however I thoroughly enjoyed the character development and personalities of the main characters, Hickory and Abacus.
Using modem-day object names as people names, by the way, was very creative! It gave the sense that this community was indeed years away from our current age. I had two issues with this book that kept it from being a 5-star story. First, I wished the overall plot had advanced This story was an interesting take on a post-apocalyptic world. First, I wished the overall plot had advanced at a faster pace and ended with a stronger cliffhanger.
Secondly, I wish this book had a better exterior cover that hinted at the plot. The current cover appears to be the wrong size and only indirectly represents the story line. I will be looking for the next book in the series. This book piqued my curiosity! May 08, Dee rated it liked it Recommends it for: On the whole, I enjoyed this book, but all the council meetings got rather tedious. I realize they were employed to show the egalitarian nature of the society, but they just began to get on my nerves. This novel showed that religious extremism will exist, no matter what book is followed, the Bible or an historical journal.
I'm a sucker for rooting-around-lost-civilizations stories, which is what enticed me to try it out. I liked the characters and the unique world-building. I look forward to reading more in this series.
