The concept of using the parasite's abilities aginst him was good. The crawling around inside the belly of the Crystal Ship got boring. Trying to maintain the Shrike's evil image was good but then to turn this into practically a romance novel at the end left a good deal to be desired.  Despite my criticisms I am still enjoying the series but it is taking more work on my part to do so. The second book could not stand on its' own! Without having read the first book the second book would totally befuddle the reader.
