Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

In an alluringly intricate alternate contemporary world with PDAs, cell phones, and helicopters, humans, lutins descended from insects, and remnants of the decimated faerie population are all engaged in a mysterious war rife with intrigue. Nyssa has curious holes in her memory as well as the ability to leave her body and travel back in time, but ghosts plague her. When the aloof executioner Abrial is directed to bring Nyssa to Cadalach, he jumps at the chance but soon finds himself falling in love, and the couple faces a journey fraught with danger. The FBI, HUG, goblins, ghosts, and a hobgoblin are all on their trail, not only in this world but also in the dreamlands. Swashbuckling action and daring escapes abound in this curious combination of dark fantasy and romance leavened with quirky humor. Readers of Laurel K. Hamilton will enjoy this complex tale, as will those who have read the other four books in Jackson's Wildside Romance series. Diana Tixier Herald

5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful romantic fantasy , July 28, 2004
Ghostalker and dreamwalker Nyssa searches for information to fill the vast gaps of what she knows about her past. Nyssa is almost obsessed with finding out who she is and what her connection to hobgoblin Qasim is.

Cop Jack Frost becomes concerned with Nyssa's probe reaching the attention of those who would use and abuse her or others who will kill her. To keep her safe from the FBI and goblin goons, he dispatches the entity Abrial, but initially she refuses his help. That changes as the Feds and the goblins begin to give chase. Travelers on the run with no hope of dispatching a courier to Jack, the two outsiders Nyssa and Abrial fall in love. However, their relationship means new groups who would not want a merger between a ghostalking dreamwalker and a night entity for fear of what the next generation will bring.

The latest walk on the "Wildside" is a wonderful romantic fantasy that adds new elements that brilliantly fit and enhance the existing Jackson mythos. The action-packed story line is filled with mythological creatures, who along side of government agencies make Wildside seem real. However, the crucial component that invigorates STILL LIFE is the love subplot between two souls who know they should not, but could not prevent their feelings from showing even with danger mounting from seemingly everywhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another winner!, August 9, 2004
By Huntress Reviews (United States) - See all my reviews
Nyssa has few memories; dreams are the majority of her reality. Amnesia has hidden her importance in the struggle between humans and goblins, but when she begins to know that she has information critical to the war, she places herself in danger. To keep her safe, Jack Frost, the death fey/boss on the side of light dispatches Abrial, a dreamwalker of the Unseelie court. Her dreams made Abrial love her, but he believed that to be a doomed love. Even if she could defy his moira and love him, inside her is a dark secret that her own father would kill her to take.

**** With unerring surety, another Wildside romance enchants readers, daring them to love. The pace remains tense and fast through the climatic finale. Ms. Jackson deftly balances the elements of romance, magic, and adventure to complement each other. Sadly, we will have somewhat of a wait until she escorts us to through this dangerous world again. Whatever comes next, it will be good. ****

5.0 out of 5 stars High Hopes, August 24, 2004
By Malek (New Orleans Hive) - See all my reviews
Without giving too much away, let me say first off that Ms. Jackson has chosen a heroine worthy of her talents. As I began this book, I was sure she going to give us a truly courageous story.

But sadly, I was disappointed to see it descend into the same tired old anti-goblin propaganda--particularly in the case of Qasim. Why, the way she draws him, one would almost think he was the villain of the piece. Is there no respect for property in this country any more? All the poor hobgoblin is trying to do is get back a critical item belonging to him. Granted it was hidden in a--shall we say--most unorthodox place.

All this hysteria over what would be, at worst, a trifling mutilation is surely unnecessary. And to what avail? The love scenes sizzle, the action crackles, and the humor bubbles throughout the story. Ah, Ms Jackson, if only you could rid yourself of your unfortunate prejudices, you could do so much good for our cause.
