3.0 out of 5 stars
Half the story,
By Laura (Nebraska) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Star Shadows (Mass Market Paperback)
At first, this seemed to be the romance between Elle and Boone, then became Zander's story, and then became Boone involved in the revolt against the Circe witches while Elle became part of them. Then finally when Zander and Boone faced off in the arena Elle came to the rescue. But that's where it ended. I'm giving it a low rating because it seemed to end in the middle, instead of wrapping up loose ends. Another grievance is that the second half of the story has not been published yet after over a year.
I would recommend that anyone interested in this book wait until the second half has been published. Then they will be able to finish the story when they have read the end of this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars
enjoyable "Star" romantic science fiction,
This review is from: Star Shadows (Mass Market Paperback)
The house of Phoenix, who rule Oasis, know the danger to their kingdom from the evil Circe witches is real, but the king and queen decided to spare their children Arielle and Alexander from how deadly this menace is. As Elle and Zander remain ignorant, their best friend Boone knows the malevolence could strike at any moment. Against his better judgment as he believes his two buddies would be better off knowing the truth of this evil threat, he swore to his liege not to tell them.
However, living a protected life in a cage proves false when the Circe witches apparently abduct Zander. His family grieves for him as they assume he was slaughtered by these abominations and his sister angrily holds Boone culpable for concealing what he knew. Feeling guilty, Boone vows to learn whether Zander still lives and if so plans to rescue him. However, he vanishes leaving it up to a now contrite Elle mount a rescue. Colby Hodge's latest "Star" romantic science fiction (see STARGAZER and SHOOTING STAR) is an exhilarating action-packed thriller that stars the younger generation of Oasis heroes. The story line is filled with adventure as first Boone and then Elle set off to learn the truth. Although Elle's obstinacy helps her on her escapade, fans will be somewhat annoyed at her narrow-mindedness. Still, she makes a fine heroine as STAR SHADOWS soars closer to the final confrontation between the witches and the House of Phoenix. Harriet Klausner
