Touchstone 25 reviews Laurie R. King
Bantam, 2007
wow, you king readers are tough
+ One of my favorites this year... + Well-written but not her best
ok, maybe this is not great and eternal literature, but it was a fun and exhilarhating ride. i mean, at this point you have given it the same score as dianna raybourn, which is ridiculous. i am a long time king fan and i think this is one of her best.
