So this is the type of book I swore I would never read again - book two of ? in a series of ? and it's been a decade since this book was released, with no word on when book three will be out, and if that will actually finish the story. I can't fault the interesting way this story is told, and do want to see exactly where this story is going though, but I can't in good concience recommend this knowing you'll be left in the lurch. It also very suddenly got very horny at about the 50% mark, and pretty much stayed there for the next 500 pages.
