Reviews

[Michael Morrison · Rating 3 out of 5]

Well worth reading, and highly praised by various "news" paper reviewers, so I'm surprised there are no reviews here.
I found the story to be complex and inventive, the characters generally believable, if not especially interesting, and the writing OK.
I have no hesitation in recommending "Love and Treason" to anyone looking for a good story without any particular message. Which I also appreciate.
