The Lost Gate by Orson Scott Card
4.0

Love this story! It feels a little bit like reading Neil Gaiman. Apparently, the book and its characters and components were over thirty years in the making, which might explain why I thought the writing was juvenile in some places. Or it could just be that he was trying to help us enter the mind of the teenage protagonist and he did a really good job of it. Looking forward to the other books in the series.
