A young man getting away from his father and his manipulating step-mother offers to accompany a young woman who is taking party supplies to a friend's cabin by a route known for mysterious disappearances at widely spaced intervals. They find themselves in an alternate world with the geography of the Ohio they left behind but a wishy washy pseudo Celtic pseudo medieval fairy land beset with alien abductions via flying saucers with arbitrarily opposed flying cigars. Neither the fantasy nor the sf elements have roots or depth beyond kiddie TV and while interesting characters are set in place only the slightest play is given to all but one or two. I have enjoyed one or two clear mixtures of SF and mid-20th cent fantasy which have come much closer to working, but this is a flat fail. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

The book has a marvelous setting and set-up but then sort of fizzles out. The action occurs near the end and is fairly stereotyped. The wanderers are left with 2 bad choices but there is no clear indication which way they will go. Ultimately unsatisfying.
