    February 2014: Romance: Maria V. Snyder: Poison Study

    Well, yes maybe it wasn't of LOTR standard but it was an ok book. The romance was sufficiently hidden to make it readable and there were some interesting ideas hidden in the backround that may be deserving of a moment of thought. For example how she had setup the goverments in the two countries...

    Sounds like it is worth a look at :) How about this quote : "Whether I accept or not, I am in your debt. Mmm, Gwen, I too am unsure what happened. The total stranger who gets himself killed while he's trying to tell you something - a cliché, a tired cliché. If I plotted a story that way today...
