Negative Positive
Title: I couldn't put it down...
Review: ...mostly because I kept telling myself, "I know there's a plot here somewhere. If I keep looking, I'll run into it any minute." Alas, I was mistaken. Honestly, folks, this book's entire storyline can be summed up in a couple of sentences, and not very interesting ones at that. If Reader's Digest is still doing condensed versions of books, they might be able to make a readable copy of SoS, but, I, for one, have no intention of wading through this mess again. I really enjoyed the first four novels, and my copies of those are in pretty shabby condition from rereading, but this one's going to stay pristine. If you're looking for rich characterization and a top-notch story, try Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series - at least he releases a new one every couple of years.
