Quirky and intriguing, it\u2019s a novella-sized read that does exactly what short fiction should: It entertains, and it makes you think. I wish I could talk about the questions it raised for me personally, but I can\u2019t. Even the questions would spoil the book.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">But hey, that\u2019s why people invented book clubs! Do you have a book club? Read this one! You&#8217;ll love it! It&#8217;s fun, it&#8217;s profound, and it&#8217;s bound to provoke fascinating discussions&#8211;the kind of intense dialog people get caught up in even if they didn&#8217;t read the book. <\/span><span class=\"s1\">You know who I&#8217;m talking about. That book club slacker who read whatever the heck they wanted instead of the assigned book and just came for the cupcakes. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(That&#8217;s right, me. I&#8217;m talking about me. What? I read what I want. And what I want is more Tyrolin Puxty!)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Since this isn&#8217;t a book club, all I can do here is recommend it. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">BOTTOM LINE: Part mystery, part madcap romp, Puxty fans will devour <i>Down to Oath<\/i> in a single sitting.<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><em>\u2013 Erin\u2019s pick.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"trashdogs-20\";\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"manual\";\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\namzn_assoc_design = \"enhanced_links\";\namzn_assoc_asins = \"1948099993\";\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit\";\namzn_assoc_linkid = \"364af88c00525a19ba94ac98aaefe0e1\";\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit0\";\namzn_assoc_search_bar = \"false\";\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"trashdogs-20\";\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"search\";\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\namzn_assoc_title = \"More by Tyrolin Puxty\";\namzn_assoc_default_search_phrase = \"Tyrolin Puxty\";\namzn_assoc_default_category = \"Books\";\namzn_assoc_linkid = \"72c617c62c88054175ca9c6d4c20d82a\";\namzn_assoc_default_browse_node = \"283155\";\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another great read from the mind of Tyrolin Puxty!
