Disappointing.
Archangel's Consort was definitely about family. Elena's bitter relationship with her father and his family, her self-made family of Guild-members, Raphael's relationship with his mother, his self-made family of his Seven, and the nascent "family" of Raphael and Elena themselves. There is certainly a lot of story to be told in all of that but this book was slow bordering on boring. I've read the other Guild Hunter books and all of the Psi/Changeling books and this is the first Nalini Singh that took me more than a week to read. It just didn't grab on the way she normally does. The ending sped up in the last few chapters and it was a nice payoff with enough open-endedness that there is certainly room for further books, but this was a real disappointment from an author I count on for great reading.
