Review: A more straight-forward, action packed story!

Greg Gifune is hands-down one of my favorite authors.  His words are stunningly atmospheric, and have the power to bring readers right into the worlds he creates.  MIDNIGHT SOLITAIRE was a bit different from some of his other books that I've read recently.  That is to say, the plot was very straightforward--there was never any question of the two basic sides in opposition, as opposed to some of his more ambiguous tales.  (A VIEW FROM THE LAKE, and THE RAIN DANCERS are the first couple that come to mind).  This story was filled with Gifune's usual ingenious imagery, and I was quickly drawn into the action.An author who probably couldn't write a "bad" story if he tried!
