Review title: Disappointing sequel
Product review: As soon as I finished Desert Places, I ordered this sequel. Locked Doors is completely disappointing. Andrew Thomas seems to have lost any semblance of the intelligence he had in Desert Places because in Locked Doors, most of his actions are out of character. Halfway through the book, I was bored because the storyline was repetitious and Crouch spent more time describing the setting/surroundings than any action or insight into the leading characters. He includes one character for the sole purpose of setting up a sequel which I have no interest in reading.
