Very dissapointed. Let me start by saying, that I really like this author. I love the darklands, the Golden Bell not so much, but the rest I really enjoyed. So despite the fact, that I usually do not like Sci-fi spaceadventures I took a chance..... and wasted my money. And it is not because of the setting.  I finished the book but skipped parts here and there to get it over with. Skye and Jaide are really not likeable, there is hardly any tangible tension between them and the great dialogues seen in the Charmer is noticeably missing. And why does all the women have to be impregnated in the books and in such an offensive manner in this book? I am sorry, but it is not realistic at all, that a woman would just shrug her shoulders by being impregnated against her will. Add to that the fact that all seem to be lying to Jaide and she at some point apologises for having trust issues with Skye because of his and the others' lies is really beyond me. Also a lot of her actions seems to stem from something I cannot pick up. Is i supposed to be stubborness?I do like the dominant male characters and I can be very forgiving of their previous actions as long as there is some growth and change in the characters that makes a happy end believable. This was not the case in this book I am sorry to say.
