Nice. I just read her blog, about how she does a visual immersion in the story she's writing - that's likely part of why I like her stuff so much, I do the same thing when I'm reading and it drives me nuts when an author contradicts a previous statement! An (other) interesting universe - less magic, this one just has psychics. Though it's still the same story - one powerful but innocent/untrained female, one well-trained, very dangerous, and low-self-esteem man. Justin is a lot less obsessed with his unworthiness than the Watchers or the half-demon, though. And Rowan is a lot more willing to take action on her own behalf. There's much less of a separation between the powerful ones and the guardians here - everyone's psychic, everyone fights one way or another. The fact that this book sort of ends in the middle of a crisis is rather disconcerting - glad I already had the sequel, hope that one has a solider ending. Good book, I enjoyed it - and that's only partly the relief from escaping the Mistborn series for a night. ( )

A young woman is more than a bit different. In fact, she has psionic abilities. This makes her of interest to two groups, the government Sigma agency, and a group of underground psionicists called The Society, that want to prevent such people being used as government tools for spook operations, etc.

Of course, the society is set up like a covert agency themselves, out of necessity.

The young woman is powerful, hence all the interest. Throw in the usual bloke that helps her out she will like, and a not too bad leave you wanting to find out what is going on ending and this book is ok.

Slow moving plot with no suprises a cliffhanger ending,and cliched brooding hero in need of redemption. Psionics are nicely handled. ( )
