Title: A good book - but not as good as her others
Review: Let me just say this: I will follow Alec and Seregil anywhere. However, I was a little disappointed by this book - the first two were great, full of adventure and great characterizations. This book had a Seregil that I didn't really recognize. Yes, he was depressed, but all the life had been sapped out of him, leaving not very much for the reader to care about.I also found the lengthy time spent in Seregil's homeworld to be a disappointment. To be honest, I wanted to see how the war was going, not read endless discussions of the diplomacy involved.I have to say though, that I did enjoy the relationship between Alec and Seregil, and the devotion that Alec showed, even when Seregil was having problems coping. I also enjoyed the other relationship that was developed over the course of the novel.I hope the next book with Seregil and Alec ties up some of the loose ends that the book leaves open.
