(4) YA In 1896, seventeen-year-old Chicago gangster Zebulon Finch is shot, killed, and mysteriously resurrected. In picaresque fashion, he chronicles his second life down through the centuries. While the voice is strong and the narrative elements interesting--it may appeal to fans of the Octavian Nothing volumes and Yancey's Monstrumologist series--the over-long book lacks clarity and purpose, something the second volume may yet deliver.
