Title: A transitional piece
Product review: Maguire's latest book is not the same as the prior two, which earned wide acclaim and threatened to stereotype this author. "Lost" is a subtler book, with more oblique and indeterminant ties to other myths and stories, and hints at this being a transitional work, the end of the "fairy tale" trilogy for Maguire.Readers interested in familiar treatments by Maguire may be disappointed. Others, more interested in watching an author continue to grow and explore his boundaries, may find a great deal of interest, and a compelling, well-told tale in its own right.
