Give them a stranger’s life, and then they’re content.”Redemption in Indigo isn’t fast paced or packed with action.
They have no interest in them, or they think they can tell them better themselves. What really makes this work is the subtle humor that shines through the narrator’s voice.“You must never tell people their own stories. The unnamed narrator speaks in first person, sometimes addressing the reader directly, mimicking the feel and tradition of oral storytelling. However, the original owner of the Chaos Stick is unhappy with this change in ownership.“All my tales are true, drawn from life, and a life story is not a tidy thing.”My favorite thing about Redemption in Indigo was the focus on storytelling and the narrative voice. Based upon a Senegalese folktale, Redemption in Indigo is the wryly humorous account of Paama, a mortal woman who attracts the attention of the djombi, who gift her with the Chaos Stick. Redemption in Indigo is undeniably fantastical, but it more closely resembles a fairy tale or fable than your usual fantasy novel.
