Review: Frustrating
Rating: 3 out of 5

The problem with this book is that we get cheated out of most of the story. A book consists of rising action, climax and resolution. This book skips the rising action and starts us at the climax. This wouldn't be so frustrating if I didn't like the book that we did get as much as I did.The work that Lyn Gala puts into creating the Rownt is nothing short of brilliant. You really get the sense these aliens are as real and have as rich a cultural heritage as human beings.But we missed out on so much.I would have liked to have seen, at least in flashbacks, Liam and Ondry getting to know each other. I would have loved to have seen more of Liam struggling with his place in the military. I would have enjoyed seeing more of the supporting cast.It's just a shame that the author put so much work into the world and neglected her story.
