Review: I Wanted More

I picked this up on a whim and I'm glad I did.  Angela is a great heroine - strong, self-reliant, with a sense of humor and some human frailty despite her not-entirely-human nature...she's in love.The author manages the details without either leaving us lost or dumping information on our heads all at once.  I was very intrigued by the glimpses of Angela's world.I laughed out loud a couple of times, and there were some unusual concepts.  The ideas of "silver poisoning" and the cure, for example, were...well, I can't really say "realistic," can I?  However, they *were* logical within the myth and legend framework that I'm familiar with.There were a few typos and punctuation quirks here and there, but overall the quality was good, and it wasn't enough to distract me from the story.Once the main story is over, there's a fair bit of "in summary, this happened over the next few years" near the end, but it's not jarring.  Disappointing, yes, in the sense of I would have liked to have read about them.  The story ends on a note indicating there's more to be read of the world, but of another character.  My final thought of the book was "But I want to read more about Angela!"
