Excellent continuation of the series. Better than #1. Hope #3 comes quickly. Lots more aliens and interesting plot lines.

Not really sure what to make of this, read it because of its Nebular nomination. But didn’t really seem like regular fantasy or SF. OK book, but tended to be rather repetitious without really progressing.

Interesting to watch the Odyssey while reading this book. Between the 2, quite a refresher on Greek mythology, though the women in the movie didn’t call the men dipshits so much. I thought the first 3/4 of the book is really good, but then it felt li ...more

The Nebula awards seem to be going hard over to the horror novels recently. Vampire novels aren’t really my favourite. Though I did like a lot of the native folklore and tales. Could have done without the tie in to present day. Beware, parts of this ...more

First off I generally don’t like time travel novels and I especially don’t like groundhog day type time travel novels. This is both of those, so two marks against it up front. Besides some tedious groundhog day type repetition, not a bad fantasy nove ...more
