I didn't realise Boneland was out until October. I've just read it for the second time. First time round there was more of an emotional 'hit' at the end, but on re-reading you pick up more of the nuances and cleverly constructed parallels and intersections between 'distant' worlds - almost reminiscent of Elidor in a very subtle way. A very rich and rewarding read from an author for whom not a word is wasted.
