Reviews

[Danielle Ackley-McPhail]

Can it be? I think this is actually the first time I've read this one. I was amazed and delighted. How Ms. Hodgell can keep such continuity and energy in a series that was started at least twenty-five years ago shows true mastery of her craft. Through the six books I have just read in order, not once did I notice a thread dropped or turned wrong. Even while I'm wishing something nice would happen to my favorite, Jame, I recognize every instance of calamity remains true to her nature. I love seeing the way she flows past the pitfalls, though thankfully not unscathed. This book and the entire series is so delightfully unpredictable.

I wouldn't want to visit such a rich and treacherous universe, but I absolutely love peering into it.
