Review title: Not memorable
Product review: I say this because halfway through this tome I realized I'd read it a long time ago. The realization came as a shock. I didn't remember a thing about it. On rereading, I find it rather tiresome, dragging in every name Neville could think of and every reference to chess she could find (and Lewis Carroll she ain't). Divided by time, seeking the same chess board and pieces, the modern heroine is an idiot and completely unlikeable. The second heroine is better drawn, especially during the French Terror, but again...ultimately, who cares? I begin to dislike quests that end with the usual "ultimate power in the wrong hands" kind of thing. When a master takes it on, like Tolkien, then stand back. But when a much lesser light tries, it's a scatter shoot.
