First, a warning to NOT get discouraged by the language barrier that begins almost immediately upon starting this book..Circe is transplanted into Korwahk, a foreign place where she knows nothing of their language and culture.  Lahn, a native of Korwahk, knows nothing of the language of Seattle, where Circe comes from.  If it makes it any easier, KA does translate a lot, but it still gets confusing, but you will work your way through it with a little effort,(and i found after reading all 400+ pages, that there is a glossary of Kohwahk language and geography explanations for all at the very end of the book)  ......Anyway, this was one of the most unusual KA books i have encountered (and i have read 20+ KA books), but i also found it to be humorous, engaging, suspenseful, hot and steamy, and just overall great!  You will also have to look upon the primitive customs of Korwahk and it's many violent traditions for what they are, FICTIONAL...It may have happened hundreds of years ago, not now though, so some reviews were a bit critical of them.  Lahn was HOT HOT HOT, but is a fierce warrior who has to learn to give Circe what she needs without giving up all of who he is, they both do throughout the book.  Circe was as beautiful inside as she was outside.  She endures alot as the story progresses but is a strong women and deals with it well. Overall their coming together and working through it all makes for a very romantic, sexy story where love wins out regardless of their trials and tribulations...
