Beautifully written; meaningful; top-drawer storytelling in the tradition of Atwood and Bradbury. ?? League of Extraordinary Authors¿¿Misty woods; abandoned towns; secrets in the landscape; a forbidden life by night; the scent of bygone days; a past that lies below the surface; and a door in a dream that seems to hold the answers.¿¿Paftoo is a "bod;" made to serve. He is a groundsman on the last remaining countryside estate, once known as Harkaway Hall ?? now a theme park. Paftoo holds scattered memories of the old days, but they are regularly deleted to keep him productive.¿¿When he starts to have dreams of the Lost Lands' past and his cherished connection with Lifeform Three (the bods' name for horses), Paftoo is propelled into a nightly battle to reclaim his memories, his former companions and his soul.¿¿This book includes an appendix of suggested questions for reading groups.¿¿"An extraordinary novel in the tradition of the great old school literary sci-fi" ??

Although the bods are “shared” frequently to create uniformity, they still develop in unique ways, and it’s fascinating to see Paftoo, the main character, gain awareness and develop opinions as the book goes on.

Though this is not a faith-based book with an agenda, there was no sex or violence, proving that you can still write a good book without including the two. The book would be appropriate for thoughtful, younger readers, though I didn’t think of it as a YA book.
Morris has thought to include a list of questions for reading groups. They should generate some interesting conversations (
