The important thing for me as a reader is that you got past that hump and the story definitely picked up its pace and became a real page-turner. I can far more easily forgive a weak start, which is honestly fairly common, than a weak ending. The former can be forgotten in the magic of a great ending, while the latter can make the reader forget all the good that came before.<BR/><BR/>I also seriously appreciate a good stand-alone book. I have an aversion to series in part because cliff-hangers drive me nuts and because these days early books are likely to be out of print by the time later books are published. Having the books in a series able to stand alone obviates all of my objections to series novels.heather (errantdreams)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08867100188239630970noreply@blogger.com
