INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Vaughan, M. M.

Mindscape

(4) 4-6 Ability series. Illustrated by Iacopo Bruno. After accidentally killing another boy in The Ability, telekinetic twelve-year-old Chris returns to Myers Holt Academy and struggles with guilt, revenge, forgiveness, and friendship. Vaughan's unique integration of conventions drawn from school stories, detective stories, and magical fantasies enables a clever and appealing world, but a tendency toward lightning-quick character transformations leads to some unconvincingly tidy resolutions in this sequel.
