Reviewed by DiriLilaluI didn't particularly like Touch of Power. The pace was pretty slow and the plot so simple that even the smart characters and their machinations appeared plain. Everything was so transparent that I just wanted to get to the good parts - meaning the romance. But, oh, there wasn't much to read about that, either. So, this was a rather disappointing read. I mean, the plot was transparent but definitely interesting and I hoped that there would be some awesome twists and turns. Meh. Instead, the whole action strand relied on a (obviously forced from the author) misunderstanding. I know, I know, that's what has to happen to finally get those two thickheads together but that just seems sooo fake! Over and out.
