COMMUNITY REVIEWS

an excellent read submitted by vln on June 1, 2008, 3:29pm Why is it so hard to find an interesting character in an interesting story written by someone who can actually write?

This book is one of the rare few.

I loved the slow pace -- the problem doesn't become apparent until you are over 100 pages into the story. Fine by me, I love the protagonist, and her journey over her planet is interesting.....

Love the character, intrigued by the story (after the first three books, the greater problem is clear, and I am wondering how Kirstein will address it, as the solution is not clear to me at all).

Just wish there were more by this author.
