Title: Not up to Ms. Braun's subtle humor and masterful writing
Product review: I have read every one of the preceding books in this series and loved them all. Ms. Braun has a wonderful sense of pace, character, plot and subtle humor that is completely missing from this book. I am unable to read beyond the first chapter because the writing is pedestrian and feels to me like someone's notes for a novel, rather than the carefully crafted final version. Ms. Jackson has always drawn me in right away with her special tone and storytelling ability. This current volume completely lacks all of the qualities that have made me a faithful follower of Koko and his chosen person Qwilleran. Disappointment only begins to describe my reaction to this book.
