"In Buddhism, the three treasures are the Buddha (the truthbringer), the dharma (the teaching), and the sangha (the community.) These stories take place between when Blair is resuscitated from drowning and when he and Megan arrive in Sierra Verde." Thus speaks the blurb on Cascade Times. This first one, Into the Bardo, is introspective Jim-angst. Short, but good. You really need to read all three of them in one go.

(2) "Facing the Demons" (Sentinel)

Oooooh my. Really short, introspective Blair-angst; thoughts on water. Definitely good.

(3) "Rebirth" (Sentinel)

Oh my, oh my, this is intense. A minefield of reconciliation, negotiated safely. This was really good.

A sequel to the Three Treasures trilogy. This was lovely. Another aspect of being a Sentinel. This was good. Tugging at the heartstrings, but authentic, not sentimental. I really liked the ideas about Jim's senses at the start.
