Fountain has one of the most original concepts of any book I've ever read. Part historical fiction with a focus on the Americas, part thrill ride - I'm reminded of The Da Vinci Code. The author artfully interweaves two compelling plotlines into one tale. True ancient myths meet conceptual fictional journeys into what could have been and what could be, but Medler intersperses engaging dialogue and entertaining character relationships into the colorful exposition and suspenseful action that keep the story from drowning in seriousness. Five stars! I'll be checking out more of Medler's work.
