Review:

The first in this series was good.  The second was not as good.  This is a stinker.  The constant verbal assaults between main characters was wearing.  The actor who did Parisa was nauseating--may have been well done, but I almost stopped listening to the book during her first appearance and she kept coming back for long segments.  The desire may have been to have an annoying character and if that was the intent, then it really, really worked.  I had previously seen Parisa as sultry and sexy (if not my kind of sexy), but this was neither when it lasted for so long.

The whole sub-plot with Elin seemed completely unnecessary and showed Libby to be far worse then her character had been in previous books.  I just really did not enjoy this book.  From minor inconsistencies (like a mind reader who didn't hear other people's thoughts when out of the room, but could identify whether or not a person was on the planet) to more major flaws (like creating a wormhole that was always present in the second book, but apparently the next wormhole--much bigger--was not always present).  If another book is published in this series, I will miss it.  Cannot spend my valuable time in this story again.
