Review: Too many characters introduced too early with too little description.

Lesley Cookman must have a significant following because she has written a lot of books. This is the first of hers that I have read, and I didn't get very far. There are a bewildering number of characters who appear early. Physical descriptions held the reader visualize the characters and thus fix them in the mind, but Cookman did little of this other than broad sweeps of the brush. This turned me off so completely that I opted out pretty early.
