Penny Feeny

This was an enjoyable piece of easy reading. Less than a day to read, interesting cast of characters, nice locations, a story with some depth to it and I'd certainly pick up another book by Feeny in future. But there were parts where I felt the book could have been much better. The characters seemed half heartedly realised at times and some things that ought to have been totally shocking were more or less skated over. And I felt like the book didn't quite know how to end. On the whole though show more it was a good read and a good story. show less

I'm not sure why I bothered with this. Plausible characters and a well-constructed plot were conspicuous by their paucity!
