By the author of the Sirantha Jax books, that’s why I picked it up. Didn’t like it as much. This is more a magical world rather than a sci fi world, so that may be part of it.

Also: product placement in a fantasy novel? REALLY jumped out at me. Bizarre. I guess I just don’t love this main character the way I love Sirantha.

The third book in the Sirantha Jax series. I really love this character and this world but I felt a little disjointed for the first bit. I guess I didn’t remember clearly enough what happened at the end of Book 2… And it’s going to suck when Book 4 comes out and I can’t go back and look at the end of this one again since I checked it out of the library! Oh woe is the unemployed student.

Love the action, love the world, love the Vel character. Really into this series.

Very cool sci fi that I picked up on a whim at the library. A little further ahead in a grimier version of our modern world, where the immigration problem has become “shifters”, people who take a mysterious drug called “slip” that slips or shifts them into other, parallel universes. Charles is one of the immigration officers involved. Lots of cool thoughts about identity and choices and time and linearity. Very cool!
