This is a difficult book to review. Will attempt later when it's not 3AM.

Ok, after much thought here's my review:

3.5*

The Psy feel nothing because of a program called Silence which was instituted in order to eradicate violence.

Nalini Singh has created a world where there are three races; the Psy, the changelines, and the human race. The Psy feel nothing because of a program called Silence which was instituted in order to eradicate violence. However, changeling women are being brutally murdered by a Psy, so Lucas Hunter attempts to infiltrate the "Psy Net" through Sascha Duncan and in the process discovers some interesting anomalies about her and her world.

This is still difficult for me to review mainly because I didn't get terribly excited about this book, though a few parts of it were exciting. I think the reason is that the world created in this book is a little difficult for me to follow all of the time. I really had to use my brain to follow what was going on and process all of the new words and new concepts that were introduced in this book. That being said, I did find that I loved the world Nalini Singh built and I found myself wanting to reach for the book to go back into the world. So A+ for that even if its hard to grasp at times. I also found that I was drawn to certain characters and wanted to read their stories ASAP, one being Hawke and come to find out his book is freakin #10! The other changeling I was interested in was Dorian.

I found the second half of the book to be much more interesting to me than the first and this is probably in large part due to the fact that I was just better used to the language and the world created. I am intrigued enough to check out the next two books, and after that we'll take it book by book and see.

I wasn't wild about Lucas, and I'm not sure what exactly it was that turned me off to him. I was a little off put by his calling Sascha darling from the get go...darling is a weird endearment for me. I love it, but it just doesn't fit everyone. I did like his panther possessive side....I would have maybe liked to see more of that. The other thing that was a disappointment for me was the fact that the 'bad guy' was who I picked from the beginning. I would have preferred to have been surprised by that.

In the end, it wasn't the best debut to a series I've read but it's good enough to catch my interest in the world that was built and to find out the outcome of some of the characters. ...more

This was a well-written book and I can certainly understand the praise this series and author are receiving. It just isn't my thing. I'm going to keep my infrequent PNR perusing limited to vampires only. ...more
