The Skin Map by Stephen R. Lawhead

 Kit Livingstone's life is going nowhere fast until his great-grandfather appears to him one stormy day in an alley that leads farther than Kit ever imagined. His great-grandfathers helps him traverse the ley lines that were once thought to be the stuff of fairy tales, but turn out to lead to other worlds and greater mystery and adventure than Kit thought existed in his future.

One traveler navigated the ley lines better than any others in history and worked out a detailed map printed on his skin. Those who find the skin map will have the link they need to discover untold secrets and to embark on a quest of imaginable consequences.

A master storyteller, Lawhead's The Bright Empire Series takes readers not only to another world, but another dimension in time. Definitely a read you can't put down, only get this book if you have several uninterrupted hours...days. to read it from start to finish. I enjoyed the reparte between characters and the quirky situations they found themselves in. Just when I thought I had a handle on what was happening Lawhead would take another ley line...so to speak. Grab this book today because Book 2 is already on the market.
