Amy's review of The Compass Rose
The Compass Rose (One Rose Trilogy, Book 1) by Gail Dayton (Goodreads author)
Liked the book overall, but the writing just wasn't very tight in places. She had a really good opportunity to explore the concept of ilian, and just didn't - she opted for titillation over world-building. I'm not sure she really know where she wanted to take the book. I read the two follow-ups and was a bit disappointed; she had a fantastic idea but the story just got away from her. It would have benefited by being twice as long and twice as detailed. Oh well.
