Marco's Millions

(1) 4-6 Sleator has pulled a fast one with this prequel to The Boxes that answers the questions left at the end of that book. Marco, uncle to Annie, is offstage for much of The Boxes, but the present volume is his story: how he came by the boxes and how their powers shaped his life as well as the lives of his sisters. While the book has Sleator's far-out ideas and expert pace, there's an added dimension of poignancy in the characterization of Marco.
