Finn

I finished Finn by Jon Clinch this week. Eh.

It was certainly well written, and the premise--the story of Huckleberry Finn's father--is interesting, but when it comes right down to it, Huck's father is not a pleasant man, and I didn't enjoy spending time with him. Nor do I feel there was really anything to take away from the book.

If you do decide to read it, I'd recommend reading Huckleberry Finn first. It's been many years since I've read it, and I think I would have enjoyed the moments of overlap between the two stories more if Twain's story had been fresher in my mind.
