radlilimMy promised review of The Conquerer's Shadow by Ari Marmell.
I liked it. After 50 pages I had thought I had the twist at the end figured out, but it turned out that it was a bait and switch. I had continued because I liked the world that was being built, but ended up happily surprised by the ending. I do wish that it had been longer, with more secondary character building, but I think it's targeted as a YA novel, so there might have been a word count limit.
It has a very interesting plot, I'd recommend it.
I won it from Spectra Pulse, a publishing group of Bantam Dell Publishing.
I also just downloaded the new free album from Simon Curtis. I like it a lot! There is a song about being in love wiht a Cylon... come on! Plus some of his songs have gay content. He's more poppy than Jay Brannon, I'll certainly look for more from him and throw him money when I've got some extra.
