The Storyteller: Story is the important thing' in this consistently imaginative, intense, thoughtful, and satisfying finale. --Kirkus Reviews, starred review A stunning and thought provoking conclusion to The Riverman Trilogy. --Booklist, starred review This coming-of-age novel is a thoughtful and nuanced exploration of the difficult transitions from childhood to adulthood. Fans of fantasy and realistic fiction alike will find something to love about this book, in which narrative ambiguity has never been so well leveraged. VERDICT This is a first buy for upper middle grade and YA collections, and a great recommendation for fans of the first two books as well as Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game or Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time. --School Library Journal, starred review
