Two Renegade Realms

DNF - PG 70

Why?

Okay, I'll admit, I was probably in a bad mood, but this quote on page 67 set me off.

‘Cantor stepped between the girl and the stranger.'

Then, in an effort to motivate myself to read more, I skipped ahead and, with this quote, had the exact opposite happen.

‘The invasion riveted Cantor's attention, but he knew when the ladies withdrew and left the viewing of slaughter to the men. He had experience with Bixby in battle and counted her as reliable in the middle of bloody chaos. But as the Lymen slashed through everything in their path, he sympathized with her need to turn away.'

Blech.

Also, the little hints of romance felt so out of place - and, quite honestly, unpleasant - that I just was getting frustrated. Finally, the contract for book three fell through and the author currently cannot self publish, so even if I finished this, there's no telling when the end of the story would actually be published.
