I would prefer to be reading action, but I've read good books without it, or very little of it. But I'd feel more rewarded if there was an explosive finale. Unfortunately, the book just fizzled out. It made for a rather predictable and unexciting conclusion.

My utilisation of complex locution to ask what's more pathetic, fans who worship their movie actors, or the actors who couldn't give a damn, is more a reflection of my own superincumbent mental actuity than any circumscribed lexicon. Don't you agree?

Ah; you caught out the moderators. Yours did indeed precede by a few days. They may slience you in some back alley, watch out. Plum-cheeks breeds sinister consequence. And it's such a small forum, so easy to oversee too!
Scum, what is this "evil cliffhanger" ending book 2 you spoke of first post of your Traviss thread? Please blankout the info.

But the series revolves around her . . . How long does she stay that?

What can I do? There was a problem with the boards yesterday, taking several minutes to access a page. I think it has something to do with the changing Literature banner every fortnight or so. It's becomming frustrating. I was limited what I could do.

Got eighty pages into Crossing the Line until I stopped reading. The characters were too flat and novel too boring to keep reading. I noticed when Traviss does a simple story(Hard Contact) that it preforms way better than her "character study"(Triple Zero, Wess'har Wars) novels.

Okay, I'll eat my words. I was wrong about Triple Zero's potential excitement.
I have that same problem too, Sniper. Was I supposed to care for the colony team in City of Pearl? You only got to know Frankland and the pregnant woman. Reporter Eddie was extremely stereotypical in persona. The learn as you went didn't quite work here. The focus was too narrow. In focusing on the main character, it was hard to care for background filler you didn't get to know.
