Cerulean Chronicles #2
Somewhere Beyond the Sea
T.J. Klune, Daniel Henning (Narrator)
I'm so eager I've started a review of a book not yet published though I'll need to wait until my library acquires it.
Arthur and Linus have joined forces and are about to adopt an eleven-year-old YETI. In part this book will be about what his arrival does to the dynamic of this magical home. The basement is about to become a cold room to make the new occupant feel at home. Cleaning it up and making it cold will be the least of their challenges.
The book seems to begin with an account of how Arthur comes back to the island and the house there after a long absence finding it empty and dilapidated. It appears to be an account of how he began his orphanage after his own sojourn growing up there. With chapter one we resume the tale begun in book 1.
On the serious side the book documents Linus and Arthur's struggles with bureaucracy. But the overall theme is love, acceptance and joy and the gang have it in spades. We end with a most unusual marriage presided over by a Yeti minister.
