    So Much Time Left Over
    I wish I had known that this book was the middle book of a trilogy before I started reading. The first book would have fleshed out the characters so that I had a better understanding of who they were. And the anticipation of a third installment would have given me hope that some of the loose ends would be tied together -- such as what happened to Daniel's child with Samadara. It all felt disjointed and rambling to me, and I kept waiting for something to tie everything together. However, DeBernieres writes beautifully and his work is a joy to read. For that reason alone I would recommend this book to anyone who loves words and their ability, when well crafted, to carry you away.
