When I first started reading this I thought it might ne a fairy tale of sorts. Then I realized it wasn't. It still felt somewhat fantastical to me. Admittedly I had a bit of trouble following it. There was quite a bit of intrigue and drama and plenty of twists and turns. I did end up liking it at the end!
About the Book: (from Amazon)
“… harrowing moments … engrossing tale … exceptional prose …” – Kirkus Reviews Alex Harrison, a young London architect, is mysteriously granted the power of instantaneous travel. Experimenting with his new gift, he transports himself to Oman where he meets the kindly scholar, Burhan. As their friendship grows, Burhan draws Alex into the epic struggle for an ancient cloth, allegedly bearing the image of God. Burhan sees the cloth as a beacon of hope for the world; Salah, his ruthless cousin, wants to lock it away forever. In the perilous chase that ensues, Alex discovers the true purpose of his gift and the terrifying price that he must pay. “… ingenious twists and unexpected tangents have the reader sitting on the edge of his/her seat … a compelling narrative …” – Readers’ Favorite (5 stars) “Line by line, The Story of the Cloth sparkles. Paterson's prose is scrupulous, elegant, and pleasing, studded with sly turns of phrase and observations worth lingering over.” - The Booklife Prize, Critic's Report
