From what I have read online not alot of folks like this book simply because it takes the main character in a different direction courtesy of amnesia (to be fair amnesia as the result of head trauma and then 2 gun shot wounds to the head... if your gonna go amnesia don't make it lame "oh I bumped my head" amnesia). Well I can say it was a different book that the last ones and in 3rd person no less which really is essential in this book for the sake of creating a mystery about Cherijo's

I got this book from the library yesterday, and started reading it this morning. So far it's just reinforcing my opinion that the Stardoc books are on an exponential track downward.
While I get the interest of the culture she's meeting here, this book is again unnecessarily brutal. It also feels like a diversion of the original plot arc.
I'm disappointed by how Ms Viehl seems unable to keep herself from adding 'amusing' little details to her stories just for the sake of havin More...

It's like Cherijo is a whole different person and I'm starting over again. She's crash landed on a planet and then was shot in the head. With no memory after she survives, she takes on the persona of the planet's inhabitants. There's also another woman from Earth that I move back and forth trying to figure out which one is the real Cherijo. I felt so sorry for Reever. He just cannot live without her.
This book has not received very favorable ratings, but I liked it. I just order More...

I wasn't too fond of this book, and it was upsetting since her series was so good. It seemed like in the series, Viehl started to dislike the sometimes mean and ornery attitude of Cherijo and did a complete 180. I had a hard time following this book and didn't really care for the ending. I took a long break after this book before I even considered picking up the next one.

It was one of these books where the author took a big detour to keep the series going longer. I didn't care about the planet or the battles, but the mystery of the two women kept me interested. I'm still not quite sure about the resolution to that though, there's a major coincidence that seems too unlikely, unless further explanation is provided in the future.

I enjoyed this book, perhaps more than many of the others in the stardoc series so far.
It was refreshing to NOT have her brutally attacked and nearly killed, etc; and not nearly magically coming in and saving the day.
I enjoyed the twists and turns and the way everything was worked together and resolved (as well as could be so far).

Another example of extreme sterotyping employed by the author this time for gay or bisexual male characters. Again every negative stereotype possible to use was employed. For me the only redeeming aspect was the 3rd person writing style used instead of the usual first person.

Long, and godawful confusing. I got to the end, and still feel like I missed something. Hopefully the next book is better.
