Review: Too little Ell?
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 01 1, 2013
This latest installment in the Ell Donsai series suffers from a lack of Earth time as opposed to TC3 time.  While I understood the focus on the Tau Ceti aliens, I felt that Ell was short-changed in this book.  Where before in the series I gave 4 stars and really thought the book deserved 4.5 stars, this time I am giving 4 stars, but I really think it deserves 3.5 stars.  Although I understand why it ended on the note it did, I really wished for more Ell and the gang.  It was too short.Comments:1.  Where's Amy?  Emma and Bridget between them have taken Amy's role and forced her out of the series.2.  "Quantum Research" becomes "Quantum Technologies" midway through the book??  I thought this was the research arm of D5R Corporation.3.  What about D5R's security?  With the increased visibility and extreme value of D5R's companies, a subsidiary company tasked with security for all corporate assets makes sense instead of the local rent-a-cop agency that has been SOOO successful up till now.  What about background checks for all the new employees?  It is not a little startup company any more.4.  What is happening internationally?  The United States is not the whole world and there is nothing about other nations' response to the vast technology changes.
