Book review: Tainted Trail
Nov. 28th, 2006 07:57 pmToday's book review is Tainted Trail by Wen Spencer.
This is the second book in the Ukiah Oregon series. I recently reviewed the first one; if you're interested, I recommend starting there.
This volume is definitely a continuation of the previous one. It's a reasonably well contained episode in a broader story arc that I expect to continue for another book or two. Unfortunately, I'm starting to have slightly more issues with the plausibility of the whole setup, and I think it would be more interesting to see Ukiah wrap up the current big problem and go on to something new. There is some character development too, but not as much as there might have been.
( plot summary )
It was fun, but not as good as Alien Taste. Still, I'll continue with the series. 7 out of 10.
