As others have touched on the plot line, I will refrain from repeating it;Frankly, this book touched a cord with me, deeper then any of her other books. I have truly enjoyed her series, and like most others, I truly look forward to more. This book, however, has personally brought out more emotions in me then any of the previous books and that is saying something.I seem to identify closely with Marcus thoughout the books. Perhaps it's the fact he is of my age, perhaps it's because he is a gamer, perhaps it's because he is a bit of a loner, thrust into a position where he is forced to open to the world.The book is, to me, exremely believable, even though you know where it's going to end up, the conflicts and the interplay of her characters is so beleiveable, so life-like. If I have ever found a fault in Debra's work, it's that her character's are almost too perfect. Even when they make mistakes, it's fixable. Real life often isn't so easy. Yet, once again, she takes two people, even if not quite the typical witches of her story, and weaves a generous, enticing tale, that once more leaves me aching to find real life people, as generous and loving as in these books.Marcus, as one old curmudgeon to another, thumbs up my man!
