Windowpane

by Steve Perry

A New York Times Bestselling Author At first glance, Flint McClelland looks just like any other scruffy street performer. But the clear notes coming from his gleaming flute evoke emotions and memories in his audience like nothing else can. If his listeners didn't know any better -- they would swear it's magic. If Flint heard this, he would just smile and nod, because it is magic. And as he wanders the nation, searching for something that America lost a long time ago, he gathers a group of special people, who are drawn into his quest to restore a lost spirit of America.

Reviews

[Timothy Nichols · Rating 4 out of 5]

Flint McClellan is trying to recover enough magic artifacts to bring back the lost Age of Aquarius, assisted by an unlikely band of folks he's helped along the way. A potboiler, definitely R rated, and a lot of fun, exploring the unlikely relationships that develop when supernatural kindness intrudes on "normal" reality.

It sort of gave me a renewed feeling of hope that maybe...just maybe...the beliefs we had in the Hippie days aren't entirely lost. It was really nice to be reminded of those times when we believed the world could be remade in hope and love and joy. It was a story I could believe in.

I just finished this book last night and it was very very different. Some "what is reality" thinking.
