The Inquisitor's Tale: Or, the Three Magical Children and Their Holy Dog by Adam Gidwitz

5.0

This book is hard to classify. It's kind of a tale you would expect to hear from a bard or other old-fashioned storyteller. It's told from various perspectives and it includes a young monk who has incredible strength, a girl who has special powers, a Jewish boy who has special healing powers, and a saintly, reincarnated dog. Oh- and they are on the run from the king who wants them dead- or so they think. Wonderful story! One of my favorites this year.
