Naiche A. (Naiche) reviewed on 2/8/2010 + 91 more book reviews

Fun read, but unimpressive. Lots of not-very-convincing angst from the woman warrior/cyborg protagonist and lots of elf sex appeal leading to the predictable forbidden romance. Lust, betrayal, cool new magic powers, plot twists, blah, blah. Good enough for some determined escapism.

If you're interested in a more complex female cyborg/warrior, I would strongly recommend Elizabeth Bear's "Hammered" series, with a genuinely conflicted and fearfully strong protagonist.
