Summary: Yet another gem by Robert Charles Wilson
Comment: I simply can't believe that most of this gentleman's books are out of print. Every single one that I have read (beginning with "The Harvest") has been GREAT, including this one. A dark read, as are most of Mr. Wilson's stories, "Gypsies" is the story of the Fauve children, and their inherited ability to "visualize" other worlds, and to actually travel to them! Unfortunately, not all of these worlds are pleasant places, and the Fauve children wait too long to ask certain questions regarding the origin of their "powers"... I found this book in the library, along with a few others of Mr. Wilson's wonderful books. I hope the publisher will respond to a note I recently sent regarding re-issue of these books! I hope other fans will encourage this also! I bet Amazon.com would sell a bunch of them!

Summary: a stimulating read for all ages
Comment: As unfortunate as it may be, books by Robert Charles Wilson are hard to come by. However, keep your eyes peeled, they're more than worth the trouble. This is the story of a small number of people with the ability to move in directions other than the traditional up-down, left-right, foward-backword motife. They are able to slip right out of this world into another. Oddly enough, each of the characters with the gift move into very different worlds. The question: why? Why to they have this power? Why is the worlds each one moves to so different? And, ultimately, why is their man in grey hunting them down?
This story goes far beyond it's plot to deal confront issues of far more importance than magic powers: family, love, creativity and, most of all, the power of the imagination.
A must read.
