A Key for the Nonesuch by Geary Gravel

I like books that have a modern person open a mundane doorway that leads to a fantastic realm. I remember starting this book on a flight from Seattle to Shreveport, La. back in the early 90's. Somehow it got lost in the shuffle. I never gave it a fair shake. When I recently saw it in a used book store, I was given the opportunity to redress that error.
Update: This was a fun, if not a spectacular book. The protagonist is a likable fellow with a sense of humor. The fantastic realm I spoke about earlier...turns out to be kinda "meh". This novel was like a satisfying but bland soup. It needed some more spice to really taste good. Literary tabasco is what this cook suggests. I will probably read the next book, but not for a long time.
