The author was clearly going for fanciful, abstract world. I liked many parts of it, but it didn't quite come together to form a coherent whole. At its best, the wordplays, puns and ideas they called to mind were fantastically fanciful, reminiscent of early Discworld. However, most of the time, the story behind the wordplay was generic.
His life is one of solitude. His present place of work is in a log cabin deep in the woods of the Calanias Empires Western frontier, far beyond the domain of the influential String Cities. The Forgotten Forest, whose growth recesses had long since ceased to be a source of wonder and its treasure now is ripe for the pickings to an aging nation looking for a new source of wealth and common purpose. Private Wilhelmina Turkle is the tallest girl Fabian has ever seen, she stands well over six feet.
She is sixteen, no more than seventeen years old.

Her limbs are too long for her frame and her stooped stance suggests she feels awkward in her own skin. She has large blue eyes, a broad flat nose and her hair is brown and bushy. She is kind and very strong. The Bubblenuff is a psychpomp. It is charged with escorting souls between this world and the Grey Cloud - upon which the dead await judgment.
It is said to be the rudest and least ethical of all the Sixty-Seven Known Psychopomps. Some say that it lives upon the tumbled pillars of hope at the end of all days and things.

It is also said that to face the Bubblenuff is to confront one's deepest fears. And when this is overcome, the psychopomp will carry messages to the world beyond shadow, where the dead wait for the living to join them. Fabian Vermeer and Private Wilhelmina Turkles's mission was to venture into the woods and look for any evidence of lost beasts and monsters, which may or may not prove a hindrance to the aims of the empire.
Throughout this adventure Fabian and Wilhelmina share stories of their childhood. Fabian tells of lost and mysterious creatures of the Western Forest.
Friendships are formed in both the human and animal world. I loved this book.

The phraseology is unique. The characters, both real and imagined were three dimensional. This was a story within a story and a lot of nonsensical words that made it a fun read. It opens up the mind and imagination for a joyous ride to the very end. I recommend this book for youth as well as adult.
