Indiana Jones and the Interior World by Rob MacGregor
2.0
Man. This book is all over the place. It's not hard to follow, narratively, but it's hard to follow in the whole "How does this make any sense?" kind of thing. All of the Indiana Jones movies have a supernatural angle to them, but this one takes it to a new level, and the explanation at the end is ... well, it's weak sauce.
To his credit, MacGregor kinda-sorta ties in the previous five books to make them one larger story, but only in the simplest terms. It's not like we have puzzle pieces that all fit together at the end of the story; instead, we see that there was a significance to all the other locations in the previous books that are important to this story. It's not ground-breaking, and it doesn't suggest that this was MacGregor's plan from the start (it feels like anything could have been retconned to fit that part of the story), but it's something.
This was MacGregor's last book in this series. I'm interested in seeing what another author can do with this license.
