Wish I could give it zero...
Sigh. I'm a huge Autumn Dawn fan, or I was. I live in a small Southern town that is made up primarily of mixed race couples, so I don't appreciate the continual references to Southern ignorance and intolerance for mixed race couples....which, btw, happens in the North also. The author took the cheap, cliched road and delivered more than a little sloppy writing because of it. Also, the hero wasn't even of African descent....he was a fire elemental, so I wonder if the implication that he was "black" by ethnicity standards would be offensive to someone of actual African American descent? Maybe someone will weigh in for me on this!
Ms. Dawn phoned this one in big time. The world development was fairly strong and had some promise, but the plot was tired, overdone, cliched, etc. Having read the rest of her books outside of this series, I am grossly disappointed and won't be picking up the next one.
Honestly, it read like a cheap, poorly done remake of M. Hall's Kingdom series...just sayin'. The parallels are astounding.
She would've done better to develop a sequal to Women, Whiskey, & Gold which represents the potential level of unique and compelling writing at which this story should've been written but wasn't.
Do Not Spend Your Money - stupid
I normally like her books but after this I will never spend a dime.
