Neville missed the mark on this one. As a fan of The Eight and Calculated Risk, I expected her pattern of weaving in and out of history, mysticism, and adventure. Somehow, in this one, I got lost.

I found myself becoming more and more frustrated as the real meat of the story was set aside without enough follow through in favor of piecemeal action that felt shallow and directionless
