this was fine, a magical adventure story and a little mystery that takes us from scotland to india. some of the threads aren't quite perfectly thought out (like why not have the tiger make itself more or less invisible and fly them all to the top of the mountain instead of separating and hiking for days?) but still it was fun enough.
