I was not a big fan of this book. I like books with a little bit of a saucy undertone. A little sex on the side never turned me off. But this book had an attitude embodied by Clarinda's blanking out of Tethys' body from Dylan's vision: the titillation is there, but off limits. I mean, if you introduce a character as a buxom redheaded witch that's a follower of a fertility goddess, you're definitely pointing down a particular path. When you then choose not to deliver on that promise, you've perpetrated a 'bait-and-switch'...
I thought the character of the Texan pilot was completely undeveloped. I was not a big fan of mixing of magic and technology. Even though I knew the book was short (only 189 pages), it seemed to have glossed over large swaths of the plot, environment and character.
So definitely one of the most disappointing books I've read recently. ( )
