A review from my old blog...

I have to say that I was disappointed when I picked up these this sequel in the An Emerald Ballad series. The compelling story line that drew me into the story and helped me forgive some of Mrs. Hoff's flaws sputtered out about halfway through Heart of the Lonely Exile.

What remained in the book were the tried and true plots of people coupling up with a few sticky triangles to sort out. When the main question of the plot revolves around "will they or won't they get married" a single girl with no prospects in mind and a somewhat discerning taste in books is left with a bitter aftertaste in her mouth.
