3.5 starsGood story. A bit information dump overload at times and a bit rambling. I enjoyed the characters though. And I'm just plain a Lanyon fangirl.
Josh Lanyon in his usual goodness. There was one thing I found hard to believe [spoiler] (that the MC took so long to figure out the book was inside the tomb - it seemed pretty obvious) [/spoiler] , but otherwise, this was an interesting and well-written story.
