Title: If this book sucked more, I could have vaccuummed my house
Product review: Although I also missed the first of this series of books, starting here with the second, I have no desire to go back and read the first, nor will I knowingly buy the next. I spent longer wading thought the first 260 or so pages than the time elapsed within them. It has interesting details, some unexpected twists (but you're expecting them, after all, it's D. Koons), and very good dialogue - where there is dialogue. The plot seems to have been patched together hastily, and although many pieces come together at the end, the story as a whole seems to be like a patchwork quilt with a few pieces missing - overall it'll work, but if you examine it, you'll see how fragile it is. I was sorely disappointed, as I enjoy Koons' ability to create new stories with different plots & characters. His skills were not used to thier full potential in this book.
