INTERMEDIATE FICTION

Still Life

(3) 4-6 Books of Elsewhere series. Illustrated by Poly Bernatene. In this series-ending fifth installment, Olive learns further secrets behind the paintings-as-portals magic of Elsewhere, its origins, and the world's creator. The magic's ability to preserve life indefinitely gets creepy, but characters with silly quirks keep the tone from becoming too dark. Illustrations are shadowy but still manage to make the heroes appear friendly.
