2.0 out of 5 stars
A lot of strong points, but far too sexual
The book has beautiful cover art, and what is within is just as beautiful in many moments. It had a lot of potential and pointed lessons on immortality. HOWEVER, one of the prime character's entire narrative is sex centered and shallow. He all but ruins the story It had a LOT of potential, but fell short, unfortunately.
