Title: Not as good as her other stuff
Review: It felt much as though the primary characters had done nothing short of sit in a dark hole for the three years between their last appearance and now. They had not changed or grown in those years. I got very tired of mopey Kelson, when his emotions felt contrived to begin with.Things that felt resolved in previous books were miraculously unresolved in this one. Rules about magic that have been previously declared inviolable were suddenly questionable. A lot of the intrigue felt like it was there solely for the sake of intrigue.I did like some of the parts of this book and it has opened the world a little more for further Deryni education and informational quests. I also liked the development of Jehanna.
