Rating: 5 out of 5

An earth interpenetrated with time travel portals, parallel universes and windows to altered realities - mental travel on the astral, layer upon layer of interwoven and juxtaposed reincarnations - an author, well studied in physics, string theory and extra spatial dimensions smoothly waltzes the reader through the fantastic as if we were walking in the neighborhood park, playing on the swings, seesaw, slide, and merry-go-round. Everything is possible and everything is believable.Mystics and seers, direct, aiding our heroes to fulfill their destinies, the beginnings of which began thousands of years before, and the culmination of which may be their present lifetime or thousands of years in the future as one minor event in any parallel universe can change the course of events. The only constant is death which is merely a transition in the energy of the soul.Characters employ soul-power, rearranging atoms to skyclimb, levitate, project images, freeze water, ignite fires, create healing orbs... Mystics and sages offer illumination..."Within the world of humans something bad is always about to happen. This is not the natural way. In all of the comos and on earth, something beautiful is always about to happen. That must be remembered; man has forgotten.""You will never find what you need until you stop searching. You will never be who you must be until you let go of who you think you are. You will never discover all the answers until you understand the questions."Nate, in book one of the Inner Movement, discovers his special gifts. In Outin, book two, he continues his journey of self-discovery as his powers amplify, mysteries escalate and betrayals unfold. Judging from the first two and the reviews I see here, I can't wait to dig into the third in the trilogy.Brandt Legg is no ordinary storyteller. Flawlessly written, fast-paced high adventure, his works contain epic truths. He is a highly skilled wizard who tells a tale any kid can understand. His novels can serve to introduce young readers, and anyone who is open, to realities beyond the mundane. There is no linear time, there is no one reality, all is multidimensional energy, existing at once, happening simultaneously and matter doesn't exist.Highly recommended.
