The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August

Harry August is an ouroboran, someone who, upon dying, is reborn at the beginning of his life. While many of us "linears" wonder what we would do differently should we have knowledge of what would happen, ouroborans can answer that question. They can also tell you the tedium that comes of being a 100 year old stuck in a 5 year old's body.

I enjoyed the book in general. It was nice to read something that had thought through the consequences of the existence of ouroborans and the effects that they might have on each other and the world. There was never a point where I was bored.

*This review and probably the star rating of this book are both suffering from my miserable mood more than anything that is wrong with the book. I doubt if Sean Astin himself could give me the five star tinglies in this mood.
