Interesting But
It took many of Mr. Fallings 's installments (books) in Scars I to get a handle on the actual story line because of his confusing technique of jumping from past to present and from different groups of characters without even hinting at the interrelationships. But, by the end of Scars I the story began to take shape. Yet in ScarsI II Mr. Falling injects new sets of characters, seemingly unrelated, which obfuscated the storyline even more. The writing itself is well done but it cannot overcome the disjointed storyline. As a reader you know that eventually the author will bring this apparent disparate set of characters together and the plot will mesh, but I do not have the patience or time for that phenomenon. I think Mr. Falling is a talented writer but he lost me as a reader on this series.
