James

Everett's ingenious latest is a retelling of the Mark Twain novel, from Jim’s—or rather, James’s—point of view as he and Huck Finn raft down the Mississippi River. Completely brilliant, stunning on audio, and a book with staying power we'll still be reading and talking about in ten, fifty, or even a hundred years. I first read this on ebook and then revisited it via the audiobook narrated by Dominic Hoffman—and found it unquestionably worth reading twice.
