This book was more a series of sparse vignettes than an actual story. The  fact is, something will happen, and then on the next page it will have come  to a conclusion without any information on how that happened. The story  wasn't too good, and the characters were flimsy. Although Mr. Zndel is  generally a brilliant, brilliant writer, this book just did not measure up  to the standards it's being judged against. If you're looking for some real  Zindel, try I Never Loved Your Mind
