Stone Arabia by Dana Spiotta
3.0
Another Biblioracle recommendation - but this one falls a bit short of the mark.
Certainly engaged me, premise-wise, and I found Nik's Chronicles to be one of the most interesting and original literary creations of recent memory... but there wasn't enough. This whole book feels so slight, so much like a missed opportunity, that I can actually say I was let down by it. It promised so much and the inherent ability seems to be there... but it just never takes flight like you want it to. A shame, really.
