We have a fairly standard setup, where the main character is the 'last of her kind', banding together with people to resist an aggressive conqueror. While there were interesting aspects to the whole aggressor/rebel relationship and some points about the perpetuation of a cycle of violence, the writing never lived up to its potential. The characterization left a lot to be desired, never delving into the psyche but staying firmly based on external action. The romantic relationships suffer as a consequence, never really managing to win me over to thinking these people actually have feelings for each other.
This review might seem largely negative, but I did enjoy Fire Logic. Perhaps not enough to pick up the next book in the series though.
