Mislaid In Parts Half-Known
Just finished reading "Mislaid In Parts Half-Known" by Seanan McGuire, published by TOR Books.
McGuire's "Mislaid In Parts Half-Known" is the ninth entry in her Wayward Children portal fantasy series.
Antoinette "Antsy" Ricci, the protagonist of "Lost in the Moment and Found," has found her way to Eleanor West's Home for Wayward Children. Ms West, concluding for some reason that the Land Where the Lost Things Go is a Nonsense world, gives her to Cora - the girl who has been a mermaid in the Trenches - as a roommate. What Antsy has brought back to this realm with her is an ability to find anything lost.
When Seraphina learns this, she uses her special ability to try and force Antsy to find her Door. With the help of several other students, Antsy escapes, then opens Doors that bring them, first, to a fairyland -- which turns out to be quite dangerous, especially to the one who has been here before; and from there to the Shop of Lost Things. Here, she learns that Vineta has not learned her lesson, but has taken on a new child, whose youth she is stealing to open Doors, without explaining the cost to her -- and done some other pretty bad things as well. Antsy decides to set things to rights, and the quest - strictly against the school rules is on.
Another great entry in this series.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
TEN STARS!
