This one didn't pick me up and not let me go like the first one in this series did, but it's certainly worth the read nonetheless. Haven't read anything by Berg that's not.

POV character Ani starts out as frustratingly shallow, shortsighted, and resistant to logic, all of which contradict her stated character. It's a pity, and seems awfully sloppy. However, we end up with the same ham-flavored but ultimately well-accompanied foreshadowing and rounding out of formerly flat characters all around by the end. The author's command of tension and resolution is much better in this one; it is very difficult to stop reading in the intense bits.
