Surprised to hear that it wasn't popular, or maybe not. I love how it introduces you to a specific skerry and some people who are connected to it, and even the idea of a skerry! And that you learn about it through a character you have already met and know that despite her "waking" personality has depths and a history. I want to read this one over and over. At the end even though many of the characters are dead, I got the feeling I got at the end of Labyrinth where the muppets from the maze tell Sarah that "should you need us" they will always be there for her. I mean, it's the dream realm. And also, what is death? If one can travel between hell and the dream realm... Who's to say they won't always be there for Barbie? Also I was addicted to my stuffed animals (who were very real to me) as a kid, maybe that's why I loved this so much. Ah, A Game of You is my favorite so far.
