Review:
This is not my genre, so it hard for me to tell how this book stacks up. I thought that the character of Illya (The Last Believer) was reasonably well developed by the time the story was over. I found the plot rather straight-forward and found the sex uncomfortable (maybe because it is written by a friend's father). Most of the characters were shallow who did not develop over the course of the novel which takes place over a fairly short period. I was a little uncomfortable with the frequency with which I was told how to react to something that a character said or did as opposed to letting the actions stand for themselves. The middle section felt abrupt, like it was a much longer novel that was cut short.
