The C.A. want to kill Vindik. Vindik wants to obliterate Boone and Co.. Boone and Co., hate the C.A. Kind of a revenge tribangle. The Sci in the Fi is good yet the Saxen powers verge on the fantastical and take an otherwise gutsy scifi novel to the edge. Dumbas......er, Elyon is a poorly crafted character. She has been built as an assassin from an early age and gets her jolllies killing indiscriminatly. Then all of a sudden is sullen and crwying hers wittle heart out over someone lying to her. "Oh poor wittle heartwess mwuffins, wet me stwoke your fierwy wed hair and console your bwoken heart". Huh? Is this supposed to be the part where Elyon is imbued with vulnerabilities and empathy? Elyon is a mash up scene where you try to stuff humanity into a psychopath. I am no writer but for believabilities sake, why not keep the psycho a psycho as that is all she has ever known, and make Boone her final transcendant reach for humanity / empathy within? A solid novel that lost a bit in characterization. Rating: 4.2/5
