Review: unique read
Rating: 4 out of 5

Very unique twist, complex, told primarily from the point of view of a character on the side of the main characters... It works fairly well.  The female lead is a strong, aware person who owns her life and choices... The character who tells most of the story is one who consciously chooses not to live up to his potential and accepts who he is without feeling susceptible to others' judgment.  Unique.  4 stars because at times it lagged and had a hard time holding my attention.  Not for long, but never the less...  I would like to see more romance in the books, the lack adds to the flatness of the story.  I like the fact that the minimal romance/attraction is gender neutral.  This lack of romance makes me hesitant to read more of her books.  I would like to follow the Phoenix with another story.
