Ali and Bern go on a quest every young person dreams of travelling, where their skills and inner resources are called upon, where dangerous and exciting challenges occur, where their most secret desires and fears are dealt with symbolically and dramatically.
'Through the Shimmering' culminates in the self-realisation and attainment of power girls will enjoy and boys will relate to, and a terrific finale even adult readers will appreciate. Cheryl's command of narrative and plot are excellent, and she handles the thrill of the quest adventure skillfully, and with an attention to detail reminiscent of Tolkeinian adventures.
