    Great Fantasy by Michael Chabon
  

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2019*

I am a big fan of Michael Chabon’s writing and this novel is no exception.  The author explains at the beginning that he believed in fairies when he was young and had a deep and abiding love of baseball.  He wanted to read a book about baseball to his children but could not find one that was suitable.  So he wrote one that combined baseball and fairies in a way that both children and adults would enjoy.  This book is a result.  Ethan Feld, the main character, lives on an island off the coast of Washington state called Clam Island where baseball is the main pastime.  He is a terrible player.  So when a hundred-year-old recruiter from the negro leagues named Ring Finger Brown recruits him to save the Summerlands on Clam Island, along with his friend Jennifer T. Rideout, by playing a succession of games against giants and other formidable opponents, Ethan screws up his courage and accepts the challenge.

    cute but long
  

*by R***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2013*

Likable characters, fascinating concepts, compelling motivation--on the surface this book has everything it takes to make a great story, but for some reason it fell pretty flat for me. I like long books--nothing delights me more than knowing I'll have at least a few days to spend in a new world--but I think this story could have been about half the length and still included everything necessary, and as a result of some slash and burn editing, would have been a tighter story. We read this in my book club and while there was one who absolutely loved the book, most of the others felt as I did. That it went on longer than necessary and as a result got a little boring. However, it was a cute story with some genuinely funny moments and I completely identified with Ethan's baseball woes at the beginning since that was me exactly in my high school gym class where all we did every spring was play softball. I have detested baseball & softball ever since so the copious baseball scenes once they're in the Fae dimension got incredibly tedious for me. I did, however, LOVE the "scampering" concept and all the world-tree mythology. I won't read it again, but it was worth reading once just for that.

    Abandoned this one
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2019*

I love Michael Chabon's books - but I could not get into this one. It might've been easier if I hadn't read the introduction about why he wrote the book. After reading about his struggles during the time of writing I just could not divorce his pain from the story and so I eventually abandoned the book.
